I bought a used tenor mpc today and I'm not sure what it's history is. I'm posting some pics to see if you all can help me ID it.

Thanks!

p.s.
I also bought an alto CS 80 C* today, washed it, dropped it.. DROPPED IT... dropped it.. I dropped it.

Thanks for the responses everyone.

It is a Buescher but I'm wondering if it's a desirable piece. Like, who's ready to give me 1k for it? :)

Actually some of the classical players like them but I would need a reface to make it work for me. I have some alto ones that are workable as is. As stock brand vintage mouthpieces go, these are pretty decent. not worth a lot, I would guess $50-75. At that price, I prefer to keep them to put with the horn when selling. Sometimes it makes the difference of a sale.
