i have an H.Bettoney, Columbia model(possibly u899) nickel plated clarinet that should be about 50-60 years old. it's in good shape but needs the corks etc. replaced. is it something that a collector would be interested in and what value would i put on it? it was inherited so my value is only sentimental, but if it is something really cool that some musician would appreciate i would rather do that.thank you for any ideas.

I have(had) one too. It was the first clarinet my parents bought me–around 1958. I believe the clarinet was a good student model and I think my parents paid $150-$250 USD. I just donated mine to an elementary school's intrumental program.
