Re: help identifying vintage selmer

Author: Don Berger

I have a 1932 Selmer F B [20/7], marked with an "R I", meaning their "Radio Improved" model. Its possibly a transitional model, from "my" 1924 FB [now given to USD/NMM, Vermillion], which they identified as a Model 20, I believe, to their more popular Model 9. There is some Sel. history available on line, but NMM seems to have the best. I also have a V G Centered Tone model, and friends have the several Model 10's . While many makers put "Made in France" on their cls, Leblanc/Noblet and Buffet/Evette etc are possibilities for your "no-name". Continue searching here ! Luck, Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
