RE: Evette Clarinet

It's not my clarinet, but I took in an "Evette" A clarinet today on consignment to sell (actually in a very nice Buffet double case). I'm looking around to establish an asking price. It has recent pads, but not a full overhaul.

As I cast around, I noticed that repeatedly I saw a distinguishing factor of these (as above quoted here):

"none of which have the polycylindrical bore on the upper joint, or undercut tone holes that seem to be prominant features of the R-13"

On this clarinet the upper joint measures 14.8mm at the top and 14.6mm at the bottom, and looking into the lower joint, I can clearly see significant undercutting. The logos say "Evette" (with 'Paris' above and 'France' below) inside a border and under the border says "made by Buffet Crampon"...I attached a photo of the log on the bell. Serial number is D52xx, much earlier than other ones I've seen discussed and obviously not a Buffet SN as these are all numeric since 1928.
