I bought an archtop Harmony 8 years ago from eBay US for £200 shipped. I even managed to escape the usual import duty - the only time I ever have. Wish I had kept it now that I see how prices have increased.

Made in the year I was borne but too expensive for me

never heard of this make? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAUL-HATHW.../311439853907?
Paul is still very much active and is well known, and reasonable - better known for his mandolin family.
He does a nice normal zouk in 'cello tuning too.
Ade Edmondson uses(?) his solid bodied zouk/mandolin (though now uses a double neck fylde that is also solid bodied (with headway pickups))
here's a parlour (six string) demo from youtube at random...

Another one I have not come across before http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Vi.../221878859215?
Loads of money!

Like busses ... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Martin-Ten.../331683438272?
I would be tempted if it didn't have a big lump of filler in just about the most noticeable place!

Only one bid on the last one but it sold for £699.
Here is another one..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gibson-TG-.../141817888791?
There is more!......

I have seen this one before, seems like a lot of money when you read about the condition? ($2800)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1959-Marti.../262134152370?
Unusual one....

Is the bridge on the Framus original?

Here is a nice one...... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252488482612?ul_noapp=true
I really dig the inside of that case!
Man, tenor guitars with banjo tuners make me weak in the knees.
IMHO, the bridge looks to me like a replacement - it's a lot of bridge for that guitar, and I think it would have been a floating bridge originally. Doesn't matter, because I am not bidding on it, I am NOT bidding on it ...
