Your cl has the "Fork Eb/Bb" by virtue of the 7th ring and the small pad/cup near by as well as the "doubled F/C " pads/cups providing improved notes, as you correctly surmised. What does the register keying mechanism look like? If more complex than usual you may have one of a few cls made in accordance with Leon Leblanc's patent, which we have discussed earlier, make a Search and the pat # will be there. I have a cl-playing f[r]iend who loaned me his special cl, which I showed and discussed with Debbi Reever of the NMM, Vermillion S D, who wrote an artile about its history for an ICA Journal a couple of years ago. She knew of one similar in the Edinburgh collection, a gift from Shackleton. Congrats , Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
