I've not seen one, and am glad to know they were actually made. My understanding is that they were only in .750" bore (King large bore), where Bell's CC tubas were in King medium bore (.687" just like the 2341 today). The 1937 or 38 Catalog I have shows a picture of Bell playing the Monster BBb Rotary Bass and endorsing it.
