I do not know anything about the Larsons and their work, however, I keep seeing many various mandolins for sale being identified as "Larson made" all the time. Therefore, I have come to wonder about the following general issue:
(1) In the absence of any Larson labels, how can their mandolins be identified positively ?
(2) How could the notion of Larson mandolin's tonal excellence develop in the first place, if we can not positively ID any mandolins as Larson made ?
