It's a Buescher Aristocrat/Selmer Bundy - basically a Selmer (USA) stencil made for B&H. These are built like tanks and will last for years.

The B&H "78" was one of these as well. Probably from the '70s as the serial numbers of these (Selmer Bundys) hit the 1000000 mark in the '80s.

Selmer (USA) Bundy flutes and oboes were also stencilled as B&H "78" and some Selmer (USA) bassoons were also stenciled as B&H Emperor.

As soon as I saw the black velvet case lining in the first photo that immediately made me think 'Bundy' - then scrolled down to see the clarinet which confirmed that.

Check the completed listings for Selmer Bundy/Buescher Aristocrat clarinets to get an idea of price.
