    "Karl Meyer" is in all likelihood a merchandiser's brand put on a horn made by someone else, otherwise known as a "stencil" horn.  Figuring out who made such horns usually requires a lot of detailed photos from different angles.  But the most important thing is how it plays.

    Update:  Turns out "Karl Meyer" was a stencil brand sold by Selmer stores back in the day.
