Looks like an ampersand (&) after the B. BB&S maybe?
Pipedia: "BB&S, which stood for Bill Barling & Sons, was a transition era Barling sub-brand."
Looks like "BB&S LIV (roman numerals for 54)... Huge guess on my part.

I finally pulled the trigger on this desl. The price was dropped to $14.99 + $7 shipping. I was also a little inspired by Crash's Kaywoodie post to get a Kaywoodie.
Package arrived and the gold star goes to Panhandler as it is indeed a BB&S!
So for $22 I got:
A BB&S that the wood is in fantastic shape on but the stem has a small hole, some chatter, and is oxidized. Might have to practice stem restoration on this one.
A Kaywoodie Campus that only needs cleaning and no restoration. I'm not a fan of the screw stem but it really is just a beautiful little pipe. Actually almost a case of love at first sight when I first held it.
Lastly I got a no name 2 tone wood pipe with a screen in it. It's in great shape so I'll clean it up and give it away to a good home.
So happy overall but especially with that little Kaywoodie. :
