Reynolds Band Instrument Co

Cleveland, OH

USA

-




In 1936, Foster A. Reynolds, established the Reynolds Band Instrument Company. At about the same time that Foster Reynolds founded the F.A. Reynolds Co., he also established the Ohio Band Instrument Company. Producing instruments in the same factory as F.A. Reynolds horns, Ohio Band exclusively sold to dealers in the school band market, competing directly with H.N. Whites Cleveland Band and American Standard divisions. The Regent was Ohio Bands primary instrument line; Ohio Band also made the Roth Band Instruments line for the Scherl & Roth company in Cleveland. In addition to the Regent and Roth brands, Ohio Band produced instruments under the Paramount brand. Little is known about these horns.

Ohio Band offered student instrument dealers a full catalog of Regent-brand brass and woodwind instruments, and band accessories, including stands, mutes, mouthpieces, reeds, etc.

Ohio Band and the Regent brand appear to have been discontinued sometime after Scherl & Roth bought F.A. Reynolds Co. in 1946. Serial numbers for Regent instruments reach ~50000; however, its uncertain whether Ohio Band and F.A. Reynolds Co. shared serial numbers or had separate sequences. If the former, that would place the final instruments around 1957. Ohio Band Roth instruments reach 55000 (1959 if shared).
