[edit] George Leblanc??

The octocontrabass clarinet is now in the possession of Mr. George Leblanc himself.

I've seen this statement made in a few places, and have repeated it myself; but is it true? Does Mr. George Leblanc even exist? Apparently the octocontrabass was once owned by Léon Leblanc, whose obituary mentions only his wife, Mary Lambret, as a survivor. I can find no mention of any 'George Leblanc' on the Leblanc web site, though Léon's father was named Georges. Léon was succeeded in the leadership of Leblanc by Vito Pascucci and then Leon Pascucci.

I've removed the above statement pending verification. -- Rsholmes 16:30, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
