Hello. I am new here and not an expert. I received this Gibson banjo but can’t identify it correctly. It has a number, 11030A-43 embossed inside. I am leaning toward a 1920s TB-1 but I am not sure. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Was there supposed to be a photo, or etching, or stained glass representation or something?

Would be an early Gibson banjo, 1917-1919
Not exactly highly sought after, but an historical instrument nonetheless

That's a great old banjo in nice shape. Thanks for taking the time to show us all!
