For your consideration is this amazing 100 year old antique Lyon & Healy / Washburn Mandolin. This is one of the fanciest models I have seen. It has all the bells and whistles. The materials include..... Brazilian rosewood, Spruce, mahogany, ebony, ivory, abalone, mother of pearl. Because of it's rare and forbidden materials, I won't be able to ship overseas. It has 42 Brazilian rosewood ribs, indicating the fanciest construction of the day. Aside from being an excellent collectible, it is a great playing instrument with awesome ,low action and accurate intonation ,with an incredible ,vintage tone. Please see all the photos and feel free to ask questions before bidding. I will listen to all offers , and there are more photos available. It come with it's original case.
