This is a Zenith 1950’s archtop imported by Boosey & Hawkes. I believe they were made in Germany. The label states, “The new zenith de luxe model. This instrument, Serial No. BIJOU 2068 has been tested and approved by Ivor Mairants (signature). Sole distributors Boosey & Hawkes LTD London”. It has new tuners, an added Artec neck pickup & a new bone saddle. Otherwise it is all original. No cracks or separations, good straight, 3 part neck. Neck, back and front are all bound. It is made of all solid wood. This is the 5th one of these I’ve had, & they have all had the same Serial No!
