Hi,
My father got this resonator guitar at a pawn shop in the mid 1930's. I have been told that it is a Dobro made resonator guitar for Montgomery Ward. The decal has been long gone but you can see the decal outline on the headstock which was repaired about sixty five years ago and is still stable. The resonator is a Poinsettia style and I've been told it is a double cyclops model. It has the old leather hardshell case with purple lining too. Any information on this resonator and its' value would be appreciated. Thanks.

It may have had the Magnotone label.
