M1915 Canteen Labels

I just realized that the relic canteen I have has a metal label on the neck. I can't manage to read it. Other than the last letter of the first word looks like an R or a K.
I don't want to do anything to the label but I sure wish I knew what it said! Any help out there?
Thanks


I have read that L.Hutzler Beirfeld (15) was a maker. I wonder if it could say that? Some of the letters might match. Very small print.
I also read that Sommerfeld was a maker.

Hello, and welcome to the ranks of our Forum page. It's hard to tell with the photographs provided, could you perhaps try to take a closer photo?
 
Hi,
I also think it's a manufacturer's label. Different manufacturers have different locations and shapes for their labels, which will make it easier to identify this particular manufacturer when you search the internet.
I copied this list in 2018, unfortunately the website doesn't seem to exist anymore, forum.militaria-sammlergemeinschaft.ch, user Max Kraehe76.
