Rare Vintage Antique 1916 GUITAROPHONE
 Description:
Rare Vintage Antique 1917 MANDOLIN GUITAROPHONE. Liberty Model Mandolin Guitarophone, Patented March 21, 1916 & Patented April 17th, 1917 Manufactured by the American Mandolin Harp Co., Jersey City, New Jersey. This super rare vintage instrument would make a wonderful addition to your antique instrument collection. This nearly 100 year old mandolin guitarophone measures 15" wide, 17" tall and is 1-1/2" thick. Said to be related to the autoharp and was also called a bell harp. There are 15 metal hammers that all work well when you press the buttons. There is a retractable mute for the hammers. On the left side is a remnant of a paper that may show how these strings are to be tuned. As far as we can tell all strings are present and working, not sure of the tuning though. The body of the instrument and the included case are a bit crude and could be a prototype model. Has a very cool “spooky” sound that would be perfect for the soundtrack of a suspense thriller. Sold as-is.
