I just added another ophicleide image (below) to the post Serpent & Ophicleide: History and Images. That post has a pretty good collection of pictures: the total number of images now is 137.
1888—Paris, France: François Sudre offers ophicleides in his catalogue (see below image; public domain) (Sudre, July 1888, p. 4).
