I believe he was also behind the Willson 2975 (old CB) euph design. Again, LH main slide ON THE TOP, 4 valves front-action, all slides but the 4th accessible from the top and a single water key that collects just about all the water in the instrument (with the exception of a trace in the 4th slide). Great little horn; too bad it never caught on.
Didn't Fred's designs also have some influence on the Willi Kurath tubas?
