A partial label with instructions is on the inner rim ( see photo ).  Minor dings and scratches, and the tailpiece appears to be aftermarket. There is no dowel stick. Instead, there's a patented curved metal piece under the heel for neck adjustment and securing. There's an older heel split repair that's tight ( see photo ). I don't believe the resonator to be original, but that's how it came. The neck and fretboard is straight, and the fretwear in the 1st. few positions is relatively minor. It is a good working and playable instrument. No case. The bidding starts at $20, and there is no reserve. $35 S&H via UPS ground fully insured to anywhere in the continental U.S. If this turns out to be an overcharge, I'll refund the money. Place a Bid!
