A Bacon & Day # 7 Montana Ne Plus Ultra. The #7 was the highest number in the B & D Montana series. "Montana" was a very famous, flamboyant, vaudeville banjoist of the 1920's who performed in an all white cowboy suit. The banjos in this series were all made in white holly wood, with very elaborate and colorful decorations. The plectrum instrument seen here was made about 1925, and has a serial # of 24920.
