John,

The drawing style suggests that the hide is from the 1920's. Is that the case?

Paul. This is indeed from an eBay auction for circa 1920s Slingerland.

Geze....as an artist and a banjoman..I can state unequivocally, that that is some ugly drawing right there.
Oh Well. sigh*

Well Gordy, tastes do tend to change over a period of 90 years! At least the subjects are consistent with the four string limitation.
