Can anyone help me figure out what make or model of Clarinet from this picture? A picture is attached. I can't get to the clarinet in person - I just have a picture. Thanks so much.

From the keywork it looks like it was made by Malerne. Could be a stencil.

Can you take a close-up photo of the logos?

But it still looks like it was made by Malerne.

Here is the info. Serial number B5820.

The logo reads
Evette & Schaeffer
Paris France
Modele Buffet-Crampton

Appears to have no cracks or damage

What do you all think would be a fair price?

Thanks so much.

It's worth roughly $200 - $300 depending on the buyer. Not a bad clarinet but not extremely rare or valuable. Would be a great instrument for a high schooler or possibly a college student on a budget. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much. I would like to start buying old band instruments to donate to local schools to encourage student participation. Band has been a great activity for my son. But I can't pay more than reasonable value for any that I find given that each one will probably need overhauling. I also keep an eye out for my local clarinet repair man since he likes to refurbish selected ones.
