Ah yes, the July 9th reverse binding comparison party in Knoxville. I remember it well. All three came from the same trees as Monroes. There are other photos and one showing a side shot which you can see the maple grains all running the same. Can't remember who had the best one so I'll just go with I did!
Darryl and Ricky look like they both fell from the same apple tree. Are you two related??

. . . and on that very day, Ricky decided to never cut his hair again.
Hmmm 3 quarters of a million dollars worth of mandolins......(or at least that much a couple of years ago)
as a certain mandolin player would have said...."Fine...mighty fine"
Pretty cool, I like the "sidebound convention" aspect! How late did you all go?

It was after a show Skaggs did and met him backstage for the "side bound convention". Time enough to pick a few old Monroe tunes. First time back together since leaving the factory in separate boxes in 1923.

I was so much much older then, I'm younger than that now.
Nice photo, fellers.
