HELP! I have this instrument and I don`t know what the heck it is! My band teacher and a band store dosen`t even know what it is. It is supposedly an old one like more than 15 years. It was made by Fe Olds & Sons but I can`t find it on their website. Here is a link to pics of the instrument:

dude its a baritone hands down i played on one just like it in middle school. it is suppose to sound more like a trombone while as the euphonium has a richer more mellow sound. i prefer a baritone over a euphonium prolly cause i play trombone though. anyway its a baritone

My geuss; some typeof saxhorn ( possibly baritone ). Narrow bore, not wide like modern baritones.

I did another post on this. I found that exact instrument; it`s called a trombonium.

Those parquet tiles on the floor are probably 6"x 6". Given that, It sure looks like an alto horn to me but I have been known to be wrong before
