Maybe they were out of other labels when this one came in or someone goofed... or the wood was nice enough to pass off as "master art" or an unscrupulous seller put it in somewhere along the way... The man I bought it from in 1978 was an old school Hungarian luthier here in Chicago who has since passed on, the nicest guy, who never struck me as being anything but a straight shooter.

Anything is possible including your Bass never actually being a Juzek to begin with. Can you post pics of it here?
