Hi Clancy
I'm not sure what year Brymer started working for the company, but I believe it was early sixties? Someone on the board will doubtless provide the answer. I have just listened again to the taped conversation and he states that the clarinet was made for him by Jack Smith in 1965 when he (Brymer) worked for the company. So if Brymer's recollection was accurate you are right and certain key craftsmen were kept on after the war. Brymer certainly spoke highly of Jack Smith, saying 'what a craftsman' and 'there is no one like him'
In fact he opens the conversation with 'That's a fine instrument - it's a Jack Smith'
It's interesting too that Thurston's clarinets were made by Smith I wonder who owns them now?
Regards
Rex
PS I have recently restored a beautiful pair of pre-war 1010's owned by my old Army Bandmaster, now in his eighties. If I can find the serial number perhaps you can provide the makers name. Wouldn't it be nice .....
