Need help identifying clarinet

Hello,

I just bought a clarinet for my nephew at a garage sale and I can't identify the maker. There is lyre musical symbol and the impression, Kenosha, Wis. One google site said it was LeBlanc, but the symbol doesn't match anything on the LeBlanc website. Any help will the greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

From the music lyre, it "sounds" like a Vito made by Leblanc [yes] in Kenosha. A fairly good student xl. IMHO. Don

Thanx, Mark, Don

Sounds like it's a Vito or similar Leblanc USA clarinet (hence 'Kenosha, Wis.') with the large curvy lyre logo.
