That's a nice find! It's the later, post war, chedeville though. I found one in a plastic vito clarinet case once. The clarinet may have met an unfortunate end versus a few bullets on a Texas ranch...
It's around a $250 mouthpiece, but should be refaced to get it playing its best. These mouthpieces are generally better than zinners\vandorens etc., but aren't anywhere near the older pre-war chedevilles.
Always nice to have these little surprises with old clarinets! Most of the time the clarinet turns out to be worth less than the mouthpiece!
