Up Mark Simon Guitars - Photo Galleries » 1942 D'Angelico Style A-1 #1613 Prev Next

There were no known photographed examples of this particular model even though John D'Angelico produced an amazing quantity of sixty guitars in 1942. Many of these were Style A, A-1, Style B, and Specials; all similar and yet all very different. Even searching previous and later years in the ledgers failed to locate an exact match. Through some more research, I found a similar example from a mandolin that matched the logo with this particular outline for the D'Angelico script.
