The problem is it would take an expert's eye to determine the maker of the guitar as basically the same guitar would have been built by Lyon & Healy, Stewart, Regal and others and often sent out to distributors which sold them under a myriad of names. The flattened pyramid bridge is distinctive of a Washburn made up to at least the early-1920s. But you will see the same bridge on other Lyon & Healy guitars as well as say instruments built by the Larson Bros.
