 Re: Boosey and Hawkes 1010

From the serial numbers on that Boosey A clarinet, I would date it to around 1931.

That instrument was most likely made around the time of the merger of Boosey and Hawkes - during this time some of the clarinets made by Boosey were made from Hawkes and Son components, so your A probably started life as a Hawkes and Son clarinet and was turned into a 1010. Some of these instruments also were stamped with the Hawkes serial numbers - the last instrument in the Hawkes and Son ledger (which I own) is serial number 15631, yours was probably made shortly after. Ive seen the Boosey and Hawkes ledger and it looks as though during the initial period after the merger some instruments did have Hawkes serial numbers. The pre war 1010 serial numbers which they continued from the Boosey and Co ledger start at 30,000 - 35000.



Hope that helps -
