Believe it or not I KNOW what an over the shoulder bass horn is (although initially an old broad like me immediately thought "over the shoulder bolder holder...which is what I grew up hearing a bra referred to as ...hey it was NY maybe its a regional thing)
BUT back to the horn. My oldest DD is a USMC Major and she went to a military college. I remember they had a lot of era pieces there on display. However did you get that ? Hope you got a good price. I would have been peeing in my pants watching you two pack it up....should have taken pictures
Several years ago we were heavily into Civil War Reenacting and DP started a brass band. If you folks get to know me, you'll find out I'm married to a serious hoarder, so when she starts something, she does it all out. So we have at least 25 if not 50 random ancient brass instruments floating around in various stages of repair or disrepair. She decided to list the actual CW era horn on eBay and though it didn't sell for what we wanted, we got a whole bunch of inquires. I was able to steer one guy to another horn in much better shape and much more $$$'s!

Anyways....


And we called 'em over the shoulder boulder holders in CA too!
