Hi,
I'm new to this forum. I have a Leblanc Symphonie full Boehm that I bought used in the mid 1950s. The Serial number is 9746, although I understand serial numbers are not much help in Leblancs. Anyway does anyone know about these instruments? I would guess it is from the 1940s. It plays well, although intonation is not as good as my Sonata.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
J B

After reading some of the postings here and reexamining the instrument I realize I made an error it reads "Symphonie Model". The G is on the same line as the Leblanc. So I would guess this would make it late 1940s to early 1950s???
