    I came across my Grandfathers old Harmonica. He passed away in 1959 and it has been stored since. I know it's a M. Hohner of Germany and called "The Goliath". It's 7.5" in length. It was VERY hard to get pics due to how shiny it is even though it needs cleaned. There's no way I can take it apart with my arthritic hands. I hope someone can help me date this...

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    In the 6th paragraph down on this page, the writer gives a couple of tips on dating Hohner harmonicas. However, it doesn't narrow yours down very much.
