I realise that one cannot assume that the case is the original case when the instrument was new, but it carries the name of the Dawkes retail business, which was founded in 1966, and the case does appear to be from that period. Not an encouraging sign.
Are there any examples of definite Louis Chelsea instruments having scalloped joint rings? They are usually flat, as in B&H and Hawkes.
The look of the clarinet is post war to me. The keywork is clearly post 1930s.
Just doesn't look right.
