Thank's for taking the time to answer.
It's not easy to find information in france (I live in France) on the BT series of selmer...this was if I'v understood, a series made by selmer france for the US.
On the bottom part is written:

sole agents
US & CAN
SELMER
new york
Elkhart

I love old instruments from the US....I play a lovely sax sopran Buescher too...it's from 1926...Elkhart too! And I just love it!
I hope that when I'v finished repadding it will play as well as you say.
Thank's
Richard

I Know of cours that Buescher is made US.
I live in a very little town called : Landudal...:) in briattany...so I must admit that it seem's special to have an instrument from the US dating of 1933...
I play a lot af jazz with my vintage sopran buescher.Jazz and traditional music...I just have great plesasur with it! So, I hope that my selmer clarinette made in france but played in US will be great too! Of cours, it's not as simple as that but...what a life for an instrument!!!
