old / antique clarinet

Can anyone help me date a clarinet that belonged to my grandfather. He played in an artillery band in world war one and was stationed in France. The clarinet I have that belonged to him has various markings on it but I have had no luck in searching the various databases on the internet to find it. It has "Reynolds & Co" stamped in various places on it. On the bottom part it has "Made on France" and "Challenge Premiere Qualite" but no apparent serial numbers. It also has CHP stamped on it.

As I am about to get it re-padded I am interested if anyone knows where I can get a fingering chart for an old clarinet like this one. I also have a wooden clarinet that belonged to him prior to the war that doesn't seem to have any markings on it.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
