All this talk about the mellophone on Ebay with the piston valves renewed my interest in the original 8D. Has anyone ever seen one or played one? Its a double with 3 pistons and a rotor change valve, I expect it was a compensator along the lines of the French Selmer.
(on another topic) I also wrote to the lister of the Mello and got no response.
