OOPS!!! Yeah, Maryland math! ha ha
My Huller alto has the number 870 stamped on it. This means the instrument was designed for 435 tuning. As I recall, 435 tuning was a standard in Europe before WWII.
The GH Huller clarinet in question has 880 and (happily) means it was designed for 440. 880 means the clarinet was probably made in the early 40's...during the war. Anyway, that's my best estimate.
Sorry for the senior moment guys! Gotta remember not to post early morning messages on the forum before my mind fully wakes up.
