 Re: Leblanc Basset Horn Age/Serial Numbers

Dear Jim,
I am just finding this in May 2015 and figured out how to enter this site just to answer you. I have a Leblanc basset horn SN 11067, no floor peg, block letter logo (which does not say France underneath it, by the way. It was purchased by a now-deceased friend directly from Leon Leblanc, who was a friend, probably in the early 1980s (though it's not impossible that it was late 1970s). At any rate it was before 1986 when I met her, and she hadn't owned it all that long. It's a wonderful instrument. My clarinet guy here in the Boston area tried to find a peg "kit" for it but Leblanc doesn't have one. I bought a guitar footrest for $20 and put it on the floor in front of me--it's got a nice rubber cover so won't hurt the bell, and even though I keep the neckstrap engaged for security the footrest is a great peg substitute.

I would love to know the exact date of manufacture, since the legend is that my friend Marilyn had it manufactured for her so knowing the serial number date would tell me when she bought it (as opposed to assuming it was picked out of an inventory of unknown timespan). Did you ever find any more information after your excellent February 23 2009 final post?
