mandodave asked: Nice site!.. btw... the Gibson mandolin picture #4259, to the best of my knowledge is a 1906.. just for the record.. Uless I can get more information .. Thanks.. Dave.. I own the mandolin.

Hi Dave,
Thank you! If you looked at the source (http://www.mandolinarchive.com/perl/show_mando.pl?3108) it gives the year of 1905. I’m merely a piano major… I’m pretty clueless about mandolin other than the fact that they are awesome instruments. I hope that site can give you more info about the mandolin.
