Flute pages from a catalog of the firm of
G. and A. Klemm
Markneukirchen, circa 1895
Thanks to Al Rice for providing a copy of the material reproduced below.
Many inexpensive flutes for export came from the Markneukirchen area. Klemm sold one- to six-key flutes with D feet by the dozen. 8-key and fancier flutes were sold individually. The better flutes are called Meyer system. They also offered a few models of cylindrical flutes with old fingering, Ziegler flutes, Schwedler-Kruspe flutes, and cylindrical Boehm flutes (which were much more expensive than others). Klemm provides flutes at diapason normal (A=435) and "Vienna pitch" (A=444).
