Ephemera: Catch Exceeds Limit
A Regal "Big Boy"-style guitar. I love it! Late '30s, early '40s.
Here's a rugged trio on the road in the cold -- 1930s -- with period KayKraft-style 2-point mandolin, Slingerland MayBell parlor... and friend.
The above group is killer! A Hawaiian-made uke (it appears to be), cheap '30s Harmony-made Dobro-style guitar (w/8" Dobro cone, likely), Gibson L-00 (in black?), and a Martin OM with banjo pegs. Nice kit, folks!
The best part of this is that this Hawaiian (slide) guitar player is doing her thing on a boat. I imagine those are college outfits of some sort? 1920s.
This stylish fella is playing some love-a-bies on his Regal-made "redhead" uke. 1920s.
Rhuuuuuuuuuumba! 1930s.
Someone will probably remind me about the maker of this style guitar with its odd tailpiece+metal bridge contraption. It's always been a good idea (that's mostly implemented poorly) and classical guitar makers have taken this and expanded upon it in recent years. 1890s.
Dad & Son in a field? With a little rocking chair for a footrest? 1910s/1920s. The guitar is from 1905-1915 era.
Don't WHYN at me, dance-band. 1930s?
