ebonite,
Thank you for that amazing resource! I think I did pull it up a few days ago but the links looked dead to me.
One of the Bb clarinets' emblems looked just like the one on my bass: this is the one dated 1948, with a serial number of 59xx. (Notably, it has no model number, just like my instrument.) Extrapolating the serial number backwards a bit (mine is 4009), and assuming that the Bb and bass clarinets used the same serial numbers, I think I can date my instrument to about 1945.
Do you think that's a fair assessment?
