The case is of the type that would have been supplied with a Cabart oboe.
I surmise this oboe may have been made by Malerne just at the time Cabart was being bought out by Loree in 1974. My guess is that Cabart stopped production during the transition, and filled existing orders with Malerne stencil instruments.
I have had (so far) two "Cabart" English horns from this time that were obviously made by Malerne. Many of the Malerne (and the myriad of Malerne stencil English horns- "Linton," "Larilee," "A. Robert," and many other trade names) play beautifully. However, in general, the same can not be said of the Malerne oboes...
