Only a few of the instruments that I've had would be considered truly 'vintage'. These are those few...
1941 Epiphone Ritz RITZ', sn. 17197,
15 1/4" wide, curly maple back and sides, carved maple top! tortoise grained binding, cherry-wood neck introduced in 1941,
This one has a tight, percusive sound a true fret-less wonder, with incredible bark!
1913 Gibson A-1 mandolin, sn. 14161 
1923, Gibson
A, "snakehead" sn 77785 
Epiphone Zenith, 1941, sn.16560, 16 3/8th" wide, walnut back and sides
