Hi from England,
Many years ago I worked for Bill Lewington Ltd in London and we had a Marzan
euphonium, bell up ( left ) and front piston valves.
It was the narrow bore in those days but blew beautifully, though the instrument itself was rather heavy, and finished in "frosted" silver plate.
I've not seen one in the UK since, I wish I had got it then.
I do have an old Highams 5 valve circa 1911 which is good fun.

Best wishes, Charley
