WANTED: 1930s Gibson L-50 (or Similar Archtop)

Looking to buy a 1930s Gibson L-50, preferably a round-hole model, but I’m open to other similar Gibson archtops from the 1930s–early 1940s.

Also interested in:
• Other Gibson L-50 years that are close in spec
• Comparable Gibson archtops (L-30, L-48, early L-7, etc.)
• Player-grade instruments welcome

Condition:
• Originality is nice, but playability and tone matter more
• Repairs, refinishes, cracks, or replaced parts are OK if stable
• Neck resets or past work not a deal breaker

This will be used for recording and playing, not collecting.

If you have one or are thinking about selling, send photos, year (if known), and any history. Happy to make fair offers and have a real conversation.
