Actually Dr. Phillips' conn is an older model than that one. It has (or did have) a double loop in the third valve tubing, visible in the photo on the jackets of his 1976 recording of the Matteson-Phillips Tubajazz Consort and his earlier Golden Crest solo tuba recording. Abe Torchinsky sold him the instrument when Harvey began studying with Bill Bell.
