Vintage Black Diamond Strings Plectrum Banjo 3rd String Counter Box 1930’s?

These came out of an old music store long out of business. Times were tough in the 1930’s and musicians tended to replace strings one at a time to save money. Strings were often retailed out of counter boxes like this one. This box has 13 originally packed loop-end, felted 3rd strings for the plectrum banjo (which is a long-necked tenor.) The box lid has two split corners, most of its original cello and has some staining from years of shelf storage. (See pics) If you’re a stickler for authentic tone from your vintage instrument or looking for a vintage display piece for your music room, this might fit the bill.
