Selmer soon switched to a simple metal band and scribed writing on the back.
The very first version had a fancy banded shank and a metal logo on the back. These are popular among classical players but are often considered too ‘dark’ by others. The first Air Flow mouthpieces had a metal ring around the shank, a very big chamber, and small tip openings. This indicated they were made during the time of the Selmer Super Sax, also in 1921. In the mid1920s the mouthpieces had SSS marked on the back. They were stamped from a very thick brass. The Selmer ligatures and caps at this time also had H. Selmer Made in France” inside an oval on the back of the mouthpiece. These were the first of the Selmer mouthpieces produced in the early 1900s.
