Any idea what it means?
An old mouthpiece says it.

Some cursory searching of this maker on the trumpet forum points towards them being made by Lausman(n) ca. late 1940s postwar.

Hmmm...
HornGuys apparently sell CNC replicas of Lausmann mouthpieces.
And there's this inteview: https://www.namm.org/library/oral-hist ... f-lausmann
Will i find anything else? is it referring to mica, the shiny flaky crystals occasionally found in rocks?
Or is there some other clever branding or wordplay going on?
I actually think it is a pretty good mouthpiece.
