I restored a Kohlert B-flat clarinet a couple of years ago - quite a nice
instrument. It was Albert system, and labled "Czecho-Slovakia", so
probably dated from c. 1920.

My brother has a Kohlert basson labled "Bohemia". A Kohlert scholar
dated it c. 1910. It has a superb tone, the envy of a number of
professional with newer Heckels.
