 'Davis' Bb Clarinet

'Davis' clarinet Selmer connection?
Has anyone heard of a 'Davis' clarinet?

"On the bell it simply says 'Davis' Paris.
It has been suggested that it might be a Malerne stensil. Another suggestion is that it is a Selmer instrument that Ben Davis 'improved'. A third suggestion is that Selmer produced a few instruments called 'Davis' in recognition of Ben Davis' long service with the company. Have you ever come across a 'Davis' Paris?"

The bore has had the taper increased and the key holes have been opened out. It has no identifying numbers or manufacturer name.

The clarinet has a very nice articulated G# plus one roller.

Anyone have info to share?
