Its almost sure its a LOREE, IMHO. With the letters all capitalized, you can see how easily the "angled" line, which makes an R out of a P, could have been erased as the result of wear or a poor stencil-strike initially. The F. and Paris help secure my conclusion. I presume it is wood and old ? Don

I wonder if the LOPEE oboe was actually made in PAPIS.
