Sounds like the standard King Eb sousaphone, essentially a pro-grade horn. (King's student models would have been labled Cleveland or American Standard). Bill Bell loved the King Eb horns, and used a 4 valve version with the Goldman Band as a soloist according to early '30s King literature. Not much value in a 3 valve Eefer, though, so I wouldn't spend a lot on it.
