Ditson/Martin 2-17

[Robert M Johnson]

I just found out that the Ditson I own was made
by Martin. It was made in early 1923 and has
couple of repair issues. It was near mint when
I first came across it 30 years ago. Bad storage
caused a crack and the glue let go on the bridge?
I am thrilled to re discover this long lost gem. Any
thoughts on repairs?

Best to get it to someone who really knows the old Martins for an evaluation. Those things are delicate and subject to all kinds of aging issues.
