In 1957 I bought a mutant clarinet in Germany. It was popular at the time among jazz players. The mouthpiece carries an alto saxophone reed rather than a clarinet reed and there are no open rings -- all have pads. After some experimentation with the fingerings I played it for a number of years in sundry dance bands and some jazz.
I can't read the brand name -- it's in a calligraphic type face (attachment 1).
Attachment 2 is a photo of the two lower joints, showing the padded tone holes instead of open rings.
