Custom Very Early 1900s Regina Mandolin Banjolin Banjo Luthier Project Orpheum? WOW!

Super cool relatively easy project

Rare One of a Kind
24 3/4" tall
12" wide head
Some very nice wood and craftsmanship here
Lots of nice hand cut inlay
-Some intricate inlay needs attention and reworking or removal, on upper fingerboard
Extended fingerboard
High Quality construction
Needs new skin/banjo head.
Original Bridge Tailpiece and Tuning machines included
All head bolts are original and are there, which is almost never the case..

Guessing was made in Europe possibly England, but we are not sure of Origin, could be USA.
Not sure if it was from a manufacturer/luthier back in the day, there are no marking or name other than Regina. Possibly someones Mom or girlfriend? Can't find anything at all online about it. We've seen a dozen of these come through our Brooklyn shop over the years. This one was found in the Bronx and is by far the nicest we've seen as far as craftsmanship. Not sure what it may be, but possible Orpheum of this time period based on comparing binding inlays and rear tuning plates.

In a rare instance of an approved return, and at our discretion, we reserve the right to charge a restocking fee proportionate to item cost (typically 20% of item cost). In our experience a disproportionate amount of online customers request refunds for reasons out of our control and often times after the item has shipped. Many times this is after we have taken down listing, removed item from showroom, packaged item, processed paperwork, and payed out the consignor.
