1950s Harmony Ukulele. Made in Chicago. Soprano Size.

Description

Travel back in time with this vintage ukulele.
Made by
the late, great, legendary Harmony Company
in Chicago, Illinois, back when Chicago was still Music City USA, home of Harmony, Kay, Valco, Ludwig, Werco, Slingerland, Hammond, Lowrey, Lyon & Healy, Deagan, Geib, Kluson, Shure, Jensen etcetera. I'm reasonably guessing it was made sometime in the 1950s or 1960s, back when Harmony made zillions of nukes.
With a 13" scale length, it's a typical soprano sized uke. No case. It has ordinary age and play wear. Some of the white painted
faux
binding has flaked off the top.
There
are some knicks and scratches. No cracks. Brown celluloid pickguard. The tuners have been upgraded with modern tuners that work very well.
It's in good solid
condition
. I just put new D'Addario strings on it today.
It's a classic All-American
ukulele, ready for its next owner.
Questions?
It will be well packed with plenty of new 1/2" bubble wrap and shipped in a new stout cardboard instrument box.
