Definitely is a Kay-made instrument while they were still being made in the USA. Jake Wildwood posted about a stadium banjo he came across.

You'll see a banjo with your same pot design in the 1954 Kay Catalog.

When I google your brand, I also see a banjo-mandolin with the same pot design. My unbranded Kay-made banjo-mandolin uses the heavier pot design in the catalog, see images of it on my page if you'd like.
