Vienna design is attributed to a conglomerate of makers from that area. There are about five or six I believe, Fischer will be along soon & he can explain better than me. Stewy

Hi Michael
I agree with the others, this one is an attributed JB&Co. example.
It is presumed the initials stand for "Josef Bergs & Co. - Gablonz an der Neiße" but documentation has yet to be uncovered.
This example is a typical "Gablonz Family" IAB with the familiar Ball Hinge and crimped in catch set up.
Myself, I believe Josef Bergs is most likely the maker due to the ground dug examples of this design found in the vicinity of the Bergs & Co. factory.
Best Regards, fischer
