I've seen photos of flutes and more recently oboes with the flap-style keywork, but this is the first instance of clarinets I've seen fitted with it.

I assume the flaps all close above the one that's being held closed.

I'm looking for photos of flutes built with this mechanism as some had end-blown headjoints (like a shakuhachi).

Found the headjoint type, but not the flappy keywork: http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/map_item.pl?data=/home/www/data/service/music/dcmflute/0100/0179f1.jp2&itemLink=r?ammem/dcm:@field(NUMBER+@band(0179+dcmflute))&title=DCM+0179:+++Maino+%26+Orsi+/+Flute+in+C&style=dcmflute&legend=
