Beaufort American brass instruments were 'student' instruments started/produced by Holton, then later Pan American (student-model Conn). The 'Chicago' on the bell may add some confusion.

This is a Pan American-made monster Eb. Even has the OLD/fancy Conn/Pan American bracing.❕️

Thanks. For some reason I was thinking they were a Czech or Austrian import. I think the Chicago on the bell made me think of Lyon & Healy.

A tuba with antlers -- a horn with horns.
