    My deceased father had this ukulele and I cannot determine who made it or when. It is possible it is an old Martin Tiple but there are no numbers or markings inside. On the top it appears to say Nonpareil for tone quality. I cannot find any pictures of one like this on the internet. Thank you for your help

      Cool! Rumour has it Perlberg & Halpin in New York distributed the Nonpareil ukes late 20's, although I haven't seen any catalogues and that they were made by Bulwin in LA.
