Trader-BOB's MUSIC offers a 1920's No Namel 19 fret, tenor banjo. 16 tension hooks. 11" Rogers Wearbset Brand, goatskin head. Very possibly the original, and in fine shape. Celluloid covered peghead, and fretboard, popular in the 1920's. The dowelstick to body fastner bracket, says "WMP Co. Pat Pend". This is Waverly Music Products, the Pat Pend puts this early 1920's. This banjo looks all original, with the exception of the armrest. Was added by drilling a hole directly thru the body, and attaching it with a machine screw, and nut. The friction tuners all work. The neck has .028" relief, measured with my dial indicator. The finish on the neck, and body is worn. The hardware all matches, has some rust. Actually, with a little TLC, play it without a refinish. The case is a "Bulls Head" brand. This trademark dates from 1922 to 1928. The case is pretty solid, needs some seam reglue. Latches work, some rust on the hardware. The tolex on the case has some distortion, like a chemical got spilled on it. See the last pix, mid ot upper neck. There is a brass tag on the case front, states; "Smarts Music Shop, A Real Music Store, 5 Park Ave - 2nd Floor - Mansfield O."
