1920's Ukelin Manufacturers Advertising Co. Violin and Hawaiian Ukulele Combined Two Hole Ukelin 1929

Great Condition considering it’s almost 100 years old. Has a few broken strings which are attainable. Structurally and aesthetically the Ukelin is in great shape and really looks very cool. Labels are all in very good condition as well. Following is a bit on the Ukelin per the Smithsonian Website

"Ukelin" is one of the more common trade names of a type of stringed musical instrument marketed from the early 1920s until about 1965.

Ukelins combine two sets of strings, one group of sixteen strings tuned to the scale of C (from middle C on a piano to the C two octaves above) plus four groups of four strings, each group tuned to a chord. The instrument is meant to be placed on a table with the larger end toward the performer, and while the right hand plays the melody on the treble strings with a violin bow, accompanying chords are played on the bass strings with the left hand using either the fingers or a pick. Each string and chord group is numbered, and sheet music is provided in a special numerical system intended to simplify playing for persons unable to read standard musical notation.
