Description from the seller

It is a metal B-flat clarinet.
Manufactured by F. Holton & Co, Elkhorn (Wis), USA
in the 1930s-40s (?)

Model 'Collegiate'
Serial number 2840

This clarinet, made of silver-plated brass with a gold interior on the bell, has been completely disassembled, deoxidized, and retamponed with white leather. Five needle springs have been replaced, and it is ready to play...

The pavilion is impeccable, the interior is gold.

The interior of the original case has been redone with red velvet, the exterior was simply repainted (black voile), and a plain leather handle was replaced.

Attention, due to holidays, I will not be able to send the item before January 20th! Thank you for your understanding...
