Does anyone have any info about this clarinet?

http://www.shopgoodwill.com/auctions/Antique-The-Elkhart-Band-Inst-Co-Clarinet-in-Case-33848619.html

The auction is about to end- I'm not interested in buying it- but I've never seen anything like it before. The last picture mostly shows what I mean.

It is a "standard" (vs elaborated) Simple/German/Albert system clarinet. Still in use in Germany and Austria, sometimes said to be favoured by Jazz and Klez players.

''...but I've never seen anything like it before...''

You don't sound like you are a clarinet player...of any system...would that be so?

If that's the case I'm not surprised.

Otherwise...I'm quite surprised.
