 Need help to identify clarinet
Author: jjensen6823

I recently came across a clarinet and I cannot tell what it is. It is a wooden clarinet, the bell is not black, but wood grain. There are no markings I can see on the bell. The body is black and the arrangement of keys looks unusual. The seller tells me it's an "albrecht" instument, which is a different fingering system that was used in europe in the past? The only markings I can find on the body are the words "Made in France" (I think) in extremely small letters right at the top of the upper half of the body. I cannot find any other identifying markings on the clarinet. The case has a plaque on the front that reads "Selmer" on a rectangular brass plaque. Above that are letters that look to be decals, about 1" high. I'm not sure they are original, but they read "Warwood".

I can't tell what it is. Everything I read about selmer instruments refers to the serial number, but doesn't say where to find it. However, it looks like all selmer instruments have a logo on the bell? Any help would be appreciated.

PS. I tried to attach two pictures, but it wouldn't let me. i guess they are too big.
