Mark,
many thanks! Read the URL. no mention of Kleartone, but I assume that given

"Vocotone", along with "Lafayette, Paris", "Perfackton", "Perfection",
"Henry Pourcelle, Paris", and "La Vesta" were trade names for imported
instruments distributed by the Bruno Company of New York, between 1920 and
sometime after 1950. The company (Bruno) was started in 1834 and started
using trade names for imported instruments ("stencils") in 1920. "Vocotone"
was the most common of their import labels.
