WTB: old style Alexander Mouthpiece 35

Hi,
I am looking for an old style Alexander Mouthpiece 35 (cup diameter 35 mm, bore 7,8 mm). I am especially interested in the old form (see picture attached as example. Picture is from this web, but do not recall from whom. I hope it is ok that I use it for reference).
I really hope, that one of these mouthpieces are still out there. They usually come in non-silver coated brass or nickel-silver. If there is no number on the mouthpiece, measuring the cup diameter gives a good indication of the probably origin (35 mm inner cup diameter = # 35).
I am located in Germany. Will of course also cover shipping costs.
Best
Christoph

Pretty sure that is a scam. He replied to the last 6 posts with SMS if you are still looking.

Could be someone who has a PT-6, antique Holton mouthpiece, Alexander mouthpiece, Yamaha 621, compensating Yamaha 632, AND a large rotary BBb and is just dying to get rid of them all using their two different phone numbers!

I have an Alexander mouthpiece. I'll check it when I get home late tonight.

Sorry. The one I have looks to be 31 mm at the cup opening.

Thank you all for your comments and input. Sometimes things are just not available any more…I will stick to my more modern (ca 1980-ies) Alexander 35 Mouthpiece which I use with an adapter on my Alex 164.
So I just need to buy an Alexander 163 tuba to find a buddy for my Alexander 33 Mouthpiece

I can sell you a BBb 163. To go with the mouthpiece.
