Ok, I can't evaluate the paper from here and I don't recall seeing the bass if I have but in 1956, the Wilfer family, suppliers of the Juzek basses had already moved from Shonbach, Czech. near the German border to Bubenreuth in north Bavaria, Germany. This was done at the end of the War in the mid-late 1940s to avoid communist rule.
The date alone is a red flag. Anyone can get a hold of some old labels unused but the dates must mast the location.
Hey, show us the bass!
