Gretsch 1936 Catalog 36
FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND DATING OF VINTAGE GUITARS, MANDOLINS AND BANJOS CATALOGS FROM THE COLLECTION OF GEORGE YOUNGBLOOD
These are scans of catalogs originally distributed to the public to describe the manufacturer’s products available for sale at one point in time.
The intended use for these catalogs is historical research: vintage instrument identification and dating.
These catalogs are not offered here for sale or re‐sale – They are only for the academic purpose of instrument identification, research and historical context. Please respect their use and do not reproduce, copy or distribute this information for any other purpose.
It is important to note that instrument catalogs are not always accurate in their descriptions of instrument specifications or the images used. While product improvements were constantly being made; catalogs often used older existing drawings, etchings or photographs. In some cases instruments were offered in catalogs that had been discontinued for years. For these reasons, catalogs can only be used as general guides for the dating and identification of vintage instruments.
If you are having trouble with some of the instruments details, we may be able to help. Feel free to contact us at:
