I understand that there never was a Juzek shop; when I bought it in the mid/late 1980's, the guys at the Bass Viol Shop offered a manufacturing date of probably the 1960's as an admittedly rough guess. I doesn't matter to me, though; the bass functions as intended.
The label doesn't look printed; it looks like it a copy (made in the days before plain paper copiers). The folks at Williams Violins pointed out the label and said it didn't look typical to them the first time I took it to their shop. I'll look at it tomorrow and see if I can get a picture.
