Subj: [kl] vintage Buffet "A" clarinet

Does anyone have information to share with me in regards to
when the old Buffet clarinets with the wrap-around register
key were made?
I recently acquired an old "A" clarinet in superb condition-no cracks,
in great mechanical shape....just needs new pads. My repair person
says that it was made before thay started putting serial numbers on
them....I am thinking it is probably pre-1920...
Any info you can pass on to me would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Sue Raycraft
