Most of these were made during the Depression. Mine's from 1935--the bottom bow is about hte size of my York 6/4's bow. Plays very nicely in tune. Wish I had an upright bell that fit, though.

Somewhere I read that these were a pet project of Henderson White's, with the collaboration of Bill Bell, but I've misplaced my reference.
