ancient Meinl-Weston tuba mouthpieces

Post by bloke »

I seem to recall that these were similar in style to other typical European mouthpieces but had a little bit larger bowl shape on the outside, and were stamped

W. MEINL-WESTON

...with two digit model numbers.

Does anyone know who made these, whether any of them were continued forward with another maker's name on them, and any m-w number to later number equivalents?

I believe they were JK mouthpieces. But I could be wrong about that.
