Well there is no published information on the web. Pedler stopped making instruments several decades ago I believe.

Dee is correct, I'd guess that they stopped/sold-out? before 1950. I have both a Ped bass and alto clar, in fair playing condition,. Will post my ser #s and give comments on them after I attend a funeral for a departed good friend. Don

Thanx, Mark, Don

My bass cl ser# is W13947, has DRK [double register keying, 2 bridge keys connecting upper and lower joints. The last I played it, it was quite resonant, sim to my Selmer, BUT either my hands are too small or some of its "reaches" are too great, in partic. the L F keys. My alto cl ser# is E12140, also has a same-designed DRK [unusual for an alto], plays nearly as well as my Selmer-Paris which doesn't badly need DRK. Both are older designs in other aspects, prob. quite good for their "day in the sun". Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
