Artie Shaw played a Conn Clarinet. His clarinet is now in the Smithsonian storage facility. Unfortunately, Conn is no longer an independent entity. It was acquired by Selmer, another company most commonly associated with Benny Goodman.

Not exactly sure if the key of A full boehm was a Selmer Paris RI or BT. More than likely it was a RI (Radio Improved).

The standard clarinet and most common clarinet has 17 keys, there are more advance ones that can have up to 22 keys (maybe more if it's a prototype).
What's called the "facing" of the mouthpiece is different. It's the same thing with virtually every mouthpiece model. It's hard to explain how different they are in terms of sound because different players can make the same mouthpiece sound different.

It was a Leblanc ... I used to play it when i toured with Woody's band when there were clarinet parts. Not sure what model, but it played great.
Bb isnt what you think it is it is actually B flat.
