Here is what Ralph himself said about the compilation of the list: From: Tom: This may come as a shock to you, but this is in answer to your e-mail dated 2/28/03! The list of serial numbers I have circulated was compiled by me directly from the card files in the Elkhart office, and are from the actual production cards, which also contained the name of the dealer or individual the instrument was shipped to, date, etc. I think that I would consider the entire Clarinet list to be 'for approximation only'. From what I can see, the Saxophone list 'seems' to lose detail after 1965 and I'm not sure that I would take it as 'gospel' from 1966 and forward.Īlso, it looks like the Clarinet list lacks in detail throughout. Ralph's own words indicate a high level of confidence in accuracy. I think it is likely to be the most accurate list of Selmer serial numbers 'unofficially' published. You can make up your own mind regarding what you do or don't believe. I have also included a 'copy-and-paste' of an e-mail he sent to me regarding the list. Now that he is gone, I can see no harm in distributing this. I have never distributed this list as long as Ralph was alive because I figured that if he wanted to publish it more aggressively, that was his business.not mine. I am sure that I do not have the only copy of this list in existence and I am also sure that I have seen this list duplicated somewhere on the web, but retyped by someone who obviously must have had a copy of this same 'Morgan' list. I have answered questions about serial numbers and approximate years for manufacture for years based on a typewritten serial number list that was once distributed by Ralph Morgan. There has been no end to the discussions and arguments about serial numbers and models and years of manufacture of Selmer Saxophones (and Clarinets) for as long as I have participated on this forum and also the (now mostly defunct) 'Selmer' forum.
