Bari Mouthpiece Identification

Can anyone identify this bari mouthpiece for me? I'm looking for original manufacturer-/date- type information. The script reads "Geo. m Bundy". img101.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img101&image=IMG_57.jpg Thanks.

    Hmm It wont let me see the picture. But the Goe M Bundy mpcs are pretty good IMO, I use a streamlined model on my bari often. They were origionally made by Geo himself in the 30s/40s and later Buescher bought the name and pieces can be found dating from as late as the 60s

      Hmm. Don't know why the link isn't working (doesn't work for me either . . .). Thanks for the reply, though. The only identifying marks were the Bundy script and below that a "C". It's in pretty good shape - no chips or deep scratches, but the finish has dulled quite a bit. I don't play bari very much anymore and was wondering how much I could get for it.

        The C relates to the tip size, and it would be approx the same size as a Selmer C* bari sax piece. The later Buescher Pieces were labeled that way, and worth probably worth about $30-40 US

          Ahh, ok. I usually play tenor on a Soloist C*. I figured their sizes were close since they were both pretty good playing for me. Thanks again.
