Pedler Woodwinds Antique Clarinet, Elkhart, Ind., Complete Time Capsule Clarinet

Description

Available to own is a wonderful time capsule from Elkhart Indiana from the heyday of the 'Art' of making woodwinds. There are no cracks or chips in the body of the clarinet. The pads probably need to be changed (or not) and the corks are in surprisingly good shape. We are not musicians but have sold enough of these to know this is in better shape than the usual example from this era. It comes in it's original hardshell formed/molded case. The OEM Pedler leather reed case (complete with glass slide) is quite rare to still exist. It comes with a Henri Selmer (HS) mouthpiece, Paris-France, and what we believe (unsure) might be a silver mouthpiece cover. All serial numbers match up...all original. A real beauty that can be brought up to snuff in short order as a playable instrument or just the coolest example of the era for any serious collector.
