Banjos in my current collection are listed alphabetically by manufacturer or brand name. As my collection evolves, banjos presented on the home page of this site may be removed and added to a 'banjos I previously owned' page. Since my interest in banjos stems in part from my interest in the technological development of the instrument over the years, my collection spans the period from the 1840вЂ™s to the 1920вЂ™s. I have authored this site in the hope that other collectors might follow suit and share photos and information on their banjos with others in the collecting community. This website is dedicated to photos and descriptions of the many banjos in my collection, along with a few other vintage instruments I have picked up over the years. Rumor has it (via the 'Regal Musical Instruments 1895-1955' book) that Regal (then in Indiana) made these for L&H while fancier 'Washburn' L&H products were made in-house by L&H in Chicago. Februc.1895 Lyon & Healy 5-String Banjo This is a Lyon & Healy 5-stringer made around 1895. L&H made banjos well into the 20th century and the instruments in the upper range of their model line were well-designed and attractive. I own a Lyon & Healy 'Own Make' tenor now that I have set up with nylgut strings and play as a ukulele - I love that banjo - very well made with a great sound. These shoes are shown in an 1890s Washburn banjo catalog, on low end models with simple peghead shapes. Most have the patented L&H tailpiece shown in the inset.

This peghead is found on low end, turn of the century, Lyon & Healy banjos, often with the L&H or Mystic brand stamped into the strut. Similar in some ways to the fanciful, violin-scroll headstock Style A, and the two point Style B, the Style C. Their instruments were often beautiful, original and wonderful sounding.
