Evette Serial Number

I see an Evette clarinet on eBay. The seller says the serial number is B7338. This number doesn't show up on the Boosey website under any clarinet category. Any idea on what time period this would be from? Thanks.

IMO, its an older instrument. Could you post the link of that listing? I would like to take a look at keywork.

BTW, stay away from: "Evette, Sponsored By Buffet, Paris France".

This instrument was made before 1955. Note the bottom end of the throat Ab key and the side of the throat A key are mounted on the same post....V

I have a B4477 and Boosey tells me :

"After checking again with our antique specialist we inform you that
your clarinet is a student model B flat (440 pitch) and was manufactured in June 1952."
