Minick Olds George Roberts Model
I thought this horn might be enjoyable for the lovers of classic horns.This is a Minick George Roberts Olds. Converted to an inline bass. Note the second valve is the later larger valve. Enjoy!! Thanks, Bob

The horn has been in the Phoenix area for a long time. My friend bought it in college. I bought it from him . He bought it back from me and then I finally bought it back from him!!! It is a really cool and great playing bass trombone.

Do you know if the second larger valve was an intentional design choice from Minick? Or just something done out of necessity/lack of parts?
My bass slide is a prime example of Minick running out of parts and slapping something together Slide plays great none the less!

I don't know the reasoning Minick used for the larger valve but it definitely works well.
