Identify this goodwill mandolin
Hi folks!
My wife just found me this mandolin at goodwill. The sticker inside the sound hole is ripped out and I have no clue what manufacturer or model it could be/never had a mandolin. I’ll put new strings on it and polish it up as a living room instrument, but I’m curious if anyone knows what its history might be.

There's a Cremona Mandolin 1969-70 - Natural on Reverb right now that looks very similar to to your photos, but the bridge is slightly different:

That’s definitely the one, thank you! Impressive, me googling “oval sound hole mandolin slotted head” in all variations did not get me anywhere close.
