I have one in the shop, being restored even as we speak! (er...even as we type!)
I've owned it for some time, but have never been able to play it, since the bridge needed to be re-glued... Can't wait!

| I have a Hollywood with the Schireson label inside. It is a banjo uke with a sound hole on the obverse side. It is original and in very good shape.

| Schireson Bros. was an interesting LA firm that may have been better known for the guitars, banjos, and even bandelons and bajo sextos it manufactured in its factory on New High Street (it appears it may have moved to North Main Street in the late twenties). From the little evidence I have seen, Schireson moved into ukulele manufacture later rather than earlier. Jim T.

Good info, Jim T. That does not show up in the google searches very easily - rather their Dobro patent issues and the UHOF stuff about Hollywood and Mai Kai.
Ernie and William, might you share some photos with me? Just email to my ToeBone link above.
