VINTAGE ANTIQUE BLOCK RIMMED BANJO UKULELE - UNKNOWN AGE and COMPANY

Description

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A FEW ANTIQUE/VINTAGE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AT A COLLECTIBLES MARKET AND I WILL BE SELLING EACH PIECE INDIVIDUALLY, SO PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY OTHER LISTINGS. THIS IS REALLY A BEAUTIFUL PIECE AND SEEMS TO BE VERY WELL MADE.  IT MEASURES ABOUT 20 INCHES IN LENGTH. THE PREVIOUS OWNER BELIED THIS TO BE AN OSCAR SCHMIDTH INSTRUMENT, BUT I CANNOT FIND ANY MAKERS MARK ON IT.  THERE IS AN EXNGRAVING/STAMP THAT STATES "PAT APPLIED FOR) ON THE WOOD.
I HAVE TAKEN MANY PHOTOS FOR OVERALL CONDITION.  THERE IS A CRACK (SEE PHOTOS), BUT OVERALL SEEMS TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION, BUT OF COURSE WILL NEED TO BE RESTORED/MADE FUNCTIONAL AGAIN.  I HAVE INCLUDED PHOTOS OF THE INSIDE, HOPING I WOULD FIND A MAKERS MARK, BUT DID NOT.  THE WOOD COLORS ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTFUL!
I
AM NOT AN EXPERT WHEN IT COMES TO MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS, SO WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET.  AGAIN, I AM SELLING THIS AS IS AND EXACTLY AS I PURCHASED IT, SO PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT PHOTOS.  I AM NOT CERTAIN OF ITS EXACT AGE.
NOTE: ALL REASONABLE OFFERS ARE WELCOMED THRU EBAY.
