Need a little help identifying this scope mount.....

This is the mount on my 1957 vintage Winchester Model 88. It is a B&L 2.5-8X. There are no adjustment turrets on the tube (as you can see)...windage and elevation adjustments are made on the mount.



any idea who made it and during what time period?

Paddle faster!!! I hear banjos.
Reason for editing: correcting my auto correct
My first thought is if the scope has no adjustments, then the mount was made for it. I vote B&L before doing any research.

1/2X To 5X Balvar 5
When a man has a problem deciding between the 2 1/2 X and the 4X, the Balvar 5 gives him both scopes (and more) in one. Power change is continuous on the zoom principle so the sportsman can select the right magnification for the game and hunting conditions. As the power changes, there is no change in zero, focus, eye point, or apparent reticle size.

I thought those Balvars were the cat's pajamas back in the day, probably why I still like low power variables to this day
