How were the Kaspar Cicero mouthpieces designated? I have one with "MK" on it, others are listed #16, #11, etc. Does anyone know what number "MK" would be?

Is the MK stamped in like the rest of the Kaspar stamp or is it etched in someplace else on the mouthpiece? If it's etched, it was probably the initials of a refacer. My old Kaspar that Richard Hawkins refaced his his initials RH etched in there the original facing would have been.

It appears to be lightly stamped in, very small, vertical and just to the left of the bottom of the "table". There are no numbers at all on the mouthpiece. The only other marking is the oval Frank Kaspar logo. I wish I knew what number this mouthpiece is equivalent to!

Carl,
Call Rick Sayre at 630.916.1525. He should be able to tell you as he was Kaspar's prize student. It he doesn't know.... noone does! Good luck
Michael
