Need Info on Vintage Alexandre Clarinet

I have a vintage clarinet with the inscription "Alexandre" on it. If there is a serial number I cannot find it.

How can I find out more information on its worth?

Does it have a "plastic" bell?

No. It is all wooden.

The mouthpiece is plastic though- I don't think that part is original, but I could be wrong.

I had an Alexandre clarinet that I sold a few years ago. It was 100% grenadilla. I had purchased it at a garage sale & overhauled it myself. I played it for a few years before selling it. It was "no great shakes" as a clarinet but I felt was at least as good as a standard beginner clarinet. I could not find any information on it but opted to sell it for about $250.

Hope this helps.

Matt
