Default Yet Another Bass ID

Hi all

I bought this one 10 years ago and was told it is a Czech from the late 19th century, of course it's a shop bass

I had some work done on it, the only thing major was a new neck, since the old one wasn't providing the right angle for the size of bridge needed (new and taller bridge installed now, much better sound).....

the bass was supposed to have been decades unplayed sitting at a studio here in Buenos Aires, with the neck cracked before the previous owner restored it......many cracks on the top and back, they seem to hold up just fine

there is a label inside, but I can't seem to make anything of the washed out text....it seems that the text is inverted, somehow, but no clue as to what it says, really.....attaching a few pics of it

if you need measurements let me know...thanks in advance!!!
