Likely produced in Europe during the 1950s, this unbranded banjolin (banjo mandolin) is a simple, traditional example of the hybrid design popular in folk music of the period. Compact and lightweight, it offers the bright, cutting tone typical of banjo-style instruments.
Constructed with a walnut rim and neck, it features an 8-string mandolin tuning, a skin head, and period-correct hardware. The instrument is in good overall condition, showing some signs of play wear consistent with age, and remains structurally sound throughout.
