I still thought they were Conn HELLEBERG mouthpieces...

and yes, that is official C-S packaging.

I've been tryin' to tell folks that Conn-Selmer doesn't make EVERYTHING at Eastlake! A lot of stuff is simply repackaged there. This sort of thing has been going on in most all industries for decades now.

You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Where did you find that photo?
All of the Helleberg and other (former) UMI mouthpieces that I've recently received are in the yellow box with a yellow bristled mouthpiece brush. I have a half dozen each of the 18 and 24AW that just came in the other day in that configuration.

(UMI/King/Conn/CKB mouthpieces are mostly of German origin.)

What's wrong with a "HellebUI5" mouthpiece, anyway!? :shock: :D

Actually found the PHOTO on *bay, but I've seen the box in person, at a local- reputable- music store.

it looks like bad-stylized printing to me.

Rain, man ...
