Subj: [kl] vintage clarinet reeds from the Hans Moennig estate
Date: Fri, 9 Nov 2001 08:20:30 -0500

A few weeks ago, I sold some Buffet (I suspect that they were made by
Glotin.) clarinet reeds that a friend of mine purchased from Hans Moennig's
(legendary Philadelphia-based woodwind repairman/acoustician) widow, and I
subsequently purchased them from my friend, who actually was an apprentice
of Mr. Moennig (quite a while back, obviously).

This was quite some time ago, and I had thought that I had bought quite a
few boxes of reeds, but only found one box, which I sold on Ebay already.
Today, I came across all of the rest of them and put them on Ebay. There
are five more boxes of Buffet reeds (again, that I suspect to be Glotin) and
some good old Rico "brown box" and Rico Royal "grey box".

These reeds are all unplayed (of course!!) and probably 30 - 40 years old.

Here are links to the auctions, if you're interested:
