It looks like our OP was not getting the free info they were expecting so they went ahead and listed the banjo as "original" on ebay UK.

Plenty of photos:

Too much knowledge is a dangerous thing. Especially when it comes to maximizing profit.

Nice find Joel Hooks !

From the ad description "Someone previously asked if there are any heel cracks or problems and when I purchased from Vintage and Rare guitars in London, they pointed out that it has had a professional repair using 3 dowels, making it likely stronger than original."

But does not show a photo of the repair. And that rim is WAY wrong! That is nothing more than Paramount parts and non-original neck!
