    If you search for Kay mandolin you will find similar ones. Kay is an old Chicago company, but this one is a later import.

    Thanks that makes sense. I didn’t know if it was a Kay or not but now I do find others by putting in Kay. Thanks!

    The only thing this has in common with the Chicago Kay instruments is the name. It's actually one of these. It was imported probably in the 70's. The history of the company is here. I take this to be one of the early import models.
