This appears to be an unmarked Dobson.  No markings anywhere.  The pot measures 11'and is in good shape. The band is engraved.  The wooden part of the banjo tailpiece is broken.  Missing three brackets.  Dowel stick has no issues.  The mahogany neck is in great shape.  Very little wear.  The fingerboard is beginning to break down (dry rotted).  The fifth fret is missing and the wood chippy in that area.  Needs nut and friction pegs.  Abalone inlays all intact.  This will make a very nice banjo with some restoration work.  Sorry, no case.  Will pack extremely well.
