Description: Travel back in time with this taterbug (bowlback) mandolin. It is antique. Probably early 20th century. No maker marks. I assume it was made in Italy, but don't know. It does play, but the strings are old. Cosmetically, it looks pretty good. It has some significant age wear. The bridge is a replacement bridge. There is wear on the fretboard. Lacquer checking on the front body. Replacement bridge, I believe. There are some tiny gaps in the staves on the back, but I don't think they're cracks. There is no case, but it will be well-wrapped in plenty of bubble wrap for shipping. Questions? It will be well packed with plenty of new 1/2" bubble wrap and shipped in a new 32"x19"x7" stout cardboard instrument box. Please check out our eBay store, Time Travel Music, for more cool vintage stuff, including a bunch of vintage guitars (and a few ukuleles, banjos, fiddles, mandolins and amps, as well as fiddles, brass, woodwind, and various oddball musical instruments and old instrument brochures & catalogs). And please check out our YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/toadstoolshadow, to hear some of our original music.
