" Maker: Angelo Mannello (American, Morcone, Italy 1858–1922 New York) ", " Signatures, Inscriptions, and Markings: Marking: (on printed label below soundhole): “Angelo Mannello/Manufacturer of/High Grade/Mandolins & Guitars./Awarded highest honors at all international exhibitions./Made 1900” (written)/New York [with medals of exposition awards] ", " Dimensions: 24 5/8 × 7 11/16 × 5 13/16 in. (62.5 × 19.6 × 14.7 cm) ", " [Description] This instrument is among the finest decorated mandolins made in the U.S., where the Neapolitan mandolin, mostly played by Italian immigrants, became a fad between about 1880 and 1930. Angelo Manello emigrated from Italy in 1885 and established a mandolin factory in New York that in the early 1900s employed up to seventy-five makers, including artists for the decorative work. This instrument has a body of thirty-two fluted birds-eye maple ribs as well as mother-of-pearl and tortoiseshell veneers. "
