thank you for the tip to search buffet's interactive web page! here's what i have found:

10,576 clarinets were produced by buffet in 1975, the first on 1/3/75 (serial #152992) the last on 12/31/75 (serial #163567). of these, only 925 were 150th anniversary models. these were produced in batches of from 49 units to 311 units. here's the breakdown:

311 units produced on 2/12/75 (ser. #s 154509-154820). these were labeled: as N1 Amerique 150 Anniversaire

206 units produced on 4/3/75 (ser. #s 154953-155159). these were labeled: R13 Amerique 150 Anniversaire

207 units produced on 4/18-22/75 (ser. #s 156482-156689). these were labeled: 150me Anniversaire

49 units produced on 5/5/95 (ser. #s 156869-156918). these were labeled: 150ms Anniversaire

103 units produced on 6/3/75 (ser. #s 157495-157598). these were labeled 150me Anniversair

49 units produced on 9/18/75 (ser. #s 160060-160109). these were labeled: N1 La 150me Anniversaire

Does anyone know if there is a physical difference between the units labeled:

N1 La 150me Anniversaire
N1 Amerique 150 Anniversaire
R13 Amerique 150 Anniversaire and
150me Anniversaire ?

thank you!
