Wow, that's some serious sleuthing...this thread is approaching mystery novel status!

Hi Basil, I just saw one of these a few days ago in Island Guitars in Honolulu. It was from the '30s, in similar condition to yours (maybe not quite as nice), and had a price tag of $1,000. I mentioned yours to the sales guy and he suggested emailing photos to the owner for a valuation. You can get contact information from their web site at http://www.islandguitars.com

Thanks Craig I'll do that.. I like your motto, over here in the United Kingdom we say "All the Gear and No Idea"
Pretty much sums up the average conventioneer.. (click the link for a good example of how easily the Transatlantic Syndrome can rear it's ugly head..)
