Re: raymond guitar

Saw a picture of one online, they are very, very similar to the unlabeled guitar I inherited from my grandfather and father. My grandfather died when my father was a baby, in 1925, so know nothing of its history. Research points to it being an Oscar Schmidt or Lyon-Healy from near the turn of the century, i.e., c.1900. Or, possibly, a generic catalog version probably produced by one of the above companies for Sears-Roebuck or Montgomery Ward, and, perhaps, other companies such as 'Raymond'. Ironically, my grandfather's name was Raymond. I wonder...
