I recently came into possession of an all original Vega Vegaphone Pro serial number 73923 in excellent condition considering its age with original case and vega tuning key. I was posting here to see if the group could shed some light on this model if someone knows how to correctly date the banjo and history and possible value of this instrument. A lot of sites have lead me to a dead end though a couple sites show similar banjos which is how i came across the possibility of 1923-1925. Banjo is not my line of expertise.
