Can anyone give me any information about this old stamp? possibly translate the symbols? Very worn carved soapstone in tortoise shell case with red waxy ink.
Thanks for your help.

肇 松
吉 原
The guess of「肇」is based on this variant of「肁」.
Together, this makes a Japanese name 松原肇吉 (something like Matsubara Tadayoshi).
You should post this on https://japanese.stackexchange.com to doublecheck.
