I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

Maybe none of them. It was made in Czechoslovakia. Looks like just a horizontal line. The cornet was probably made for a retailer named Barlufe, somewhere, and sometime between WWI and WWII. I can't find out anything about who or what Barlufe was other than one reference to a French made clarinet with the same name added to it.
The Czechs made lots of instruments for the retail trade all over the world. Once upon a time there were a number of relatively large music stores in the larger cities and they would offer multiple lines of instruments. The bottom on the price list would often be instruments made for them by manufacturers with whatever house name they wanted on it. Part of the reason for this was to keep more distance from the higher priced "name brands" that may have been essentially the same, but with a little more gilt of one sort or the other.
I used to do the same sort of thing with bedding labels in the furniture business... and it continues today in a lot of product areas.
