Hi everyone,

I'm attempting (to no avail) to identify this clarinet, belonging to the local municipal band. I'm hoping that some of you, more knowledgeable than I, can let me know what it is.

It appears to say F(?) Barbier, Paris. Having researched that here on the BB I can see that it was bought out by Selmer around 1905 and made student instruments. Additional pics of Barbier clarinets that I've located show a pretty basic instrument.

What I have here is a single-body, wood clarinet with a LH Eb/Ab lever and a RH low Eb.

Thanks for the time and knowledge!

James
