Alph:

Beautiful looking instruments - did you have them replated?

I have a pair from almost the same vintage (serials 34000 for the Bb and 32000 for the A). Like yours, mine has the lever-arm crow's foot replacement on the Bb only. This is more puzzling in your case if the pair is matched: why would they keep an older mechanism on the A at the same time as doing something new on the Bb? It would be interesting to hear from owners of older instruments about when that mechanism first appeared.

I like the sound mine make, but I have to say I don't find the tuning any better than with post-war 1010s. It's not really up to modern standards.

One irritation with them concerns the tuning barrels. The barrel on the A is a lot longer than on the Bb. On post-war 1010s, the barrels were identical (as they are on e.g. Eaton clarinets today). This make changes much easier and it's the way all instruments should be. Does your pair have the same barrel incompatibility?
