 Re: Identifying a Whitehall gren. clarinet

Robert Malerne made a great many stencil clarinets. As far as I know, they were the only French maker who produced significant quantities of ebonite instruments with metal bore sleeves. It's thus extremely likely that your Whiltehall was made by Malerne.

It would be interesting to compare and contrast your Whitehall to one of the many Pruefer "Silver Throat" variants, which were also ebonite with a metal-lined upper joint, and have something of a following among sax doublers.
