Hello all, is anyone familiar with this brand of clarinets? Is this a stencil instrument made by another manufacturer such as Robert Malerne or Marigaux or maybe an unknown manufacturer in China or India?
Thanks.

Stencil?, well NOT exactly, but one of the Martin brothers [Freres in Fr], as Mark C's history-lesson, available via an archives Search, relates. They made fair to good cls sold here in the early 1900s. READ ! Interesting, Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

Are we sure that BassetHorn is not referring to the current-production clarinets labelled "Jean Baptiste" which I believe to be Chinese-made CSOs (Clarinet-Shaped Objects)?

Yes, of course he is.
They are cheap junk. A little better than the "first act" clarinets, but not by much.
It's sad when something makes a Bundy look pretty good......
