Harmony was founded in the United States in 1892 and was a prestigious company that, at its peak, was the largest musical instrument manufacturer in the United States. The peg knobs have been replaced due to deterioration, but if you wish, the original pegs will also be included. A soft case shown in image 6 is included. I will answer any questions to the best of my ability, but as I am a novice with mandolins, I may not be able to provide satisfactory answers to specialized questions. The price is based on prices on eBay. Thank you.
