The 2-20 was the old name for the still-made and commonly-seen Boosey & Hawkes "Regent" 3/4 size student model BBb. (7XX series model - also offered optionally as "convertable", nowadays.)
The mouthpipe wasn't particularly small - It just had an English shank mouthpiece receiver. The modern version (B&H Regent) has a standard mouthpiece receiver.
