Epiphone Archtop from the 1940s
Could anyone identify the guitar is these photos. They date from 1945. Any information would be appreciated!!!

Hard to tell if that's an early "moustache" peghead or center-peak, but I'll go with the latter and call it a '35-38 Zenith (based on the second photo it appears too large to be an Olympic IMO)...

Here's a pic of a fixer-upper I recently bought. A '53 Zenith. I think the rod adjustment was at the body end on earlier incarnations of this model. I think the guitar in the photo also lacks the inlay at the center of the peghead, but otherwise it looks pretty similar. The guitar in the photo also has Epiphone's earlier "cello" f-holes

The guitar body shown in the photo album is another brand (not Epiphone). Felix
