Hi Rwork,
 Looks like a stamp of some sort. If it is a stamp the letters are reversed. If you have a rubber stamp have a look at it  using a mirror to read the print. I enlarged the photo and then looked at it through a mirror.

To me it seems to read:  W E H T A M J

Second look, could be;  WEIHTAM J

I tried the simple way by putting some ink on a pad but couldn't get it to print.  Rwork

It may be a German name and initial.

You could try pressing into putty or play doh!  Are you sure it's a stamp and not a name plate?
It's kind of hard to tell from photo.

Cheers

It looks to have missing letter (s) at he end.  Mathieson, Mathison??  Used to emboss/press foil maybe?

Interesting find Rwork!

Hi Guys, Before I started plumbing I did some printing.  This is certainly a stamp. These were produced then clamped into a frame and then loaded into a 'lino type' press which is what would put the print onto the paper before presses were made that used plates.
Shame that you can't read what it says.

Cheers
