B & H Mazak keys

This has been discussed previously, but I was surprised today to find plated Mazak keywork on a B & H Edgware dating to 1971. Not just an isolated key either, the whole instrument. I know Mazak keys were found on Edgwares sold in the US into the mid-50's because I have one, but this was a UK marketed instrument that was bought new in Cambridge in the early 70's by its present owner. Maybe they were clearing out some old parts stock.

Hmmm... I suppose they had to get rid of them somehow.

I've still yet to see a B&H clarinet other than the 1950s wooden Regent and "77" that had Mazak keys.
