Can you make it into something that stands for Gebr. Hablowitz? I think I see an "H" in there.

That would make sense based on the response from "Tom" on this thread: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=38287#p335525

I see the G and what looks like a B and maybe an H inside
Yep, it's a Hablowitz. Looks a little different than mine, but that's absolutely what it is. It says "West Germany" which puts it at 1949-1990, probably most likely 50s-70s, but I don't know for sure. It could be for an Alexander, but it's not officially an Alexander mouthpiece.
