Thanks for the suggestions. I resisted putting any kind of polish, such as a guitar polish on the mandolin. What would you suggest I use?
It does look like an A-4. I found a picture of a similar mandolin here:

Mine is different in that its top...
Thanks for the suggestion.
No, it doesn't look like that one. The neck is straight across with 21 frets under all the strings.
Your pictures are almost eerie! Yes, that IS the exact model. Thanks for posting those beautiful pictures.
Thanks for your quick reply.
I didn't think it would pay off my condo, but, I can still dream. :)
The case is still intact, but it does show its age on the inside.
Would it help to preserve...
I have an antique Gibson mandolin, which was a pre-wedding gift from my maternal grandfather to my maternal grandmother. They married in 1913, so that dates the mandolin as at least 97 years old.
