How Do I Tell Which Model Buffet I Own?

In 1986 I purchased a Buffet clarinet for approx $1000, I think. It was not new when I purchased it and played it. It has not been played for 17 years but is still in excellent shape (cork and key pads all look good). It is all typical grenadilla wood with the typical Buffet Crampon logo stamped on each piece including the mouthpiece and, to the best of my recollection, had a beautiful tone. I have searched in vain for a serial number to try to find out which model I own, but can't find one. I was told that it would be above the thumb rest, but, alas, is not there. It is NOT of the Evette series, as far as I know since the logo does not include this. How can I find out which model own and how much it is worth? I had hoped my daughter would pick up the clarinet and saved it for her, but she's graduating HS this year and appears will not have an interest. Thanks for any help you can give me?
