You'd probably have better luck posting this on the DB side.

Looks like a mid-'50s German import sold by Hofner and Gewa

I don't know how tall the guy holding it in the photo is but it looks like it might be a 5/8. A lot of the value is going to depend on how much repair work is needed to get it solid, and of course how good it sounds.
