 Re: Leblanc Paperclip Contra Alto

My recollection is that the serial number lists start in 1964, because the records prior to that date were lost. The instruments themselves were in production for a number of years before that. I recall seeing a magazine cover from 1955 that prominently featured four model 340 paperclips.

There were a lot more 340's than 350's. My 340 with serial number 19XX dates from 1970, while my 350 with serial 52X dates from 1973. My guess is that both your instrument, and the mismatched crook date from near 1960 plus or minus a couple of years.
