Turned out to be a nice wood Couesnon imported by Sherman & Clay, marked very plainly on the bell, but nowhere else except for a very small FRANCE imprint on the back of the lower joint and Bb LP on the barrel and just below the register valve on the upper joint and at the bottom center of the lower joint. That's it." It was a best offer situation and I was mostly just curious. The description was "I am selling what's in the photos. I could tell the seller had probably taken a return on it from someone dead set on a Penzel Mueller and was frustrated. I looked at the wrap around register and thought hmm. In one photo I could make out the Bb LP mark on the lower joint. There was one or two relatively sharp photos that looked like it was a nice clarinet, but these were from the back. The only sharp photo was of the case with the Penzel Mueller long metal tag, not the round eagle tag. It was listed as a Penzel Mueller and that is the only reason I even looked at the listing. I lucked into a Couesnon in a similar way. The post fix looks like what I would try to engineer if I was a better tech. That looks like it will clean up real nice, and a Pedler barrel is not bad, but might be a little short.
