I've been playing Vandoren reeds since 1958, and clarinetists then were complaining that quality had declined. Undoubtedly, they were doing so in the 40s and 30s, too. I opened a box from the 60s a couple of years ago, and they were the same as they are now.
There never was much of a golden age. Vandoren's drive you nuts, but the good ones the best you can get, now as then.
Best regards.
