Can anyone ID these EUBs?
Can anyone ID these EUBs? They´re all probably made in Italy or Spain ca 1955-1962. I´ve seen a few EUBs in my days, but nothing like these

This one looks a bit like the Landscape EUBs, but it´s not!

Nope. Not Framus. Not Grazioso aka Arco aka Resonet. Not an Wandré model I´ve ever seen, and I´ve seen a lot of them. Not a Herrnsdorf.

The b/w photo of the nice gentleman and the old vocal mike is allegedly from 1955, which makes this EUB a real, real oldie.

No, but it does document David "Son of Sam" Berkowitz's (on Tenor sax) early foray into the music business.
