I can’t find any serial number on it at all, it’s made from hard rubber and has a metal lined upper joint but the mouthpiece looks plastic and has no markings other than ‘France and No5’ on it, I have photos of the instrument, mouthpeice and case and can email them if it helps. Any information at all would be very nice to know, particularly interested in her age. And why every king Lemarie I have trawled the internet for is wooden, so why the hard rubber? Kindest regards Nico
