It’s sorted Ed , they say it’s Saxon made and not worth much so it will sit in the case for another 20/30 years .
It’s nice to be nice eh

Thanks for your reply nick , I really appreciate that , I will give it a clean and put back in it’s case .
Take it out of the case every now and again.This is my A. Monzino & Garlandi of Milan mandolin from about 1930. It was almost certainly made by Meinel & Herold of Klingenthal, Saxony and retailed in the UK. It has a great British wooden (laminates) case- one of the reasons I bought it! It sounds great but I now only tend to play mandolins with a 14 inch scale- this one is 13 inch- and I am in trouble when I go back to a 14 inch scale mandolin! However, it needs to be tuned and played every now and then!
