Barbier clarinets. Florentin Barbier factory was sold to Selmer paris at one time. Later on it was noted that Barbier instruments may have been SML stencils (identified by the metal lower joint socket) when they were stamped Sponsored by Selmer and made in Paris.

Later Barbier production was moved to Elkhart, and resembled the earliest Signets. Selmer USA has manufactured various clarinets under the Signet brand since about 1945 and going back to the early 1920s. Selmer USA actually manufactured Signet clarinets before World War II (per customer 2/18/2012). The was quite interesting as it had several pro features (swoopy keywork which allows ease of adjustment). Please see the new pictures below.

These have almost always been inferior to the Selmer-Paris models, but during WWII, Paris clarinets were, for obvious reasons, not available here The Selmer USA serial numbers for the forties, in the list that I have, show a gap between 30,000 (10/15/40) and 33,000 (6/1/47) presumably because of the war. Selmer USA began making (or selling) Manhatten metal clarinets and Manhatten wood clarinets in the 1920s and/or 1930s. Selmer USA models are from lowest to highest model: Signet 100, Signet Special and Signet Soloist Selmer Manhatten – Manhatten clarinet sponsored by Selmer This lines of clairnets was primarily a student and intermediate level.

There were made during a time when Selmer USA was still headquartered in New York which they then moved to Elkhart, Indiana.

Plastic Bundys started production in 1948. With World War II cutting off the import of Selmer Paris instruments George Bundy started the line of of Bundy student instruments then added the Signet intermediate line. But some of the first Bundy wood clarinets were apparently Selmer Paris factory owned instruments in disguise. So production of Bundy clarinets would have started before their supply was cut off (or after the war?).

Keep in mind that Selmer Paris had their own Selmer Paris factory in addition to 2 other factories such as Barbier. I’m “guessing” the Bundy’s were from the Barbier or other plant and not the authentic Selmer factory. But these cannot be “Selmer Paris” factory instruments because at the same approximate time Selmer Paris had 4 posts for the throat keys, and this one has one shared post. I would guess this is from the Barbier or the other factory.

Signet Specials Signet Specials started production in 1941 or 1946. The early Signet Specials has the insignia on the barrel as well as on the other pieces. The barrel insignia was stopped around 1955. The early Signet Specials had a guide for the top trill key which was gone in 1955 but reappeared in 1960.

In 1955 the tan leather cases were introduced but the inside arrangement and outside label was different. The badge on the 1960 case had Selmer in red letters.
