Well, I wouldn't call it a Yammy 201. It may be, and a Frankensteined one at that. But some OLD horns did have the valve slides on the back.
Also look at the wrap of the vavle tubing, nothing like a Yammy, and it looks like the 3rd valve tube was wrapped around for you have a place for the thumb to go (like the 4th valve on alot of non-comp tubas and euphs), making it possible to suppore the horn while playing if you needed to do something with the other hand.
just my thoughts
