Long Description
This mandolin belonged to either my grandfather or my great grandfather. Â There is no manufacturer label on it. Â On the bottom of the footplate it says Pat'd Oct 6 86, which would have to mean 1886. Â One screw is missing for a string, one string is broken, and one string is missing. Â The wood is in excellent shape. Â I am interested in obtaining an approximate value, but not for sale. Also any information about who could have possibly manufactured it. Â Thank you.
