Why else would D. Bonade stamp it "Al Sax?" Of course, it might well fit a

I have seen pictures of Goodman using several different ligatures, mostly
standard types, including the B and H, placed in an inverted manner, usually
off-center. Someone gave me one of those B and H's a couple of years ago --
he thought it was funny since it had my initials on it!
