Thanks, Ken. It was made in 1931, once of last instruments that Thomas built. It has seen some rough treatment. It looks like the peg head was broken off and the sides sprung form the body at some time or other. There is a large crack in the back. I keep debating about having it restored so that I can play. Last Wednesday I was in Nazareth at the C.F. Martin guitar factory. As I traveled on 78 and 22 and I must have been somewhere near you.

Golly, that's gorgeous. Guess I'm a few months late with this reply. ;)
