    looks like eastern Europe, possibly Romania? Could be 1946, I suppose.

    Thanks for your reply. The mandolin have been bought in Sweden. I think its look pretty close to this one, http://www.losangelesforsale.org/dof...beachlakewood/ or some other mandolin from germany. http://www.mandolinluthier.com/Garchbacks.htm

    Do you think this mandolin can be worth anything?
