AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

English vintage parlor guitar from the 1920s

Not much to say about this guitar, which is in correct condition and seems original.
Inside, there is a pasted manuscript in English that appears to be a song from the era, titled 'A Tale of the Sea,' which is difficult to read.
Purchased at Camden Lock flea market near London, it is light and pretty, like a parlor guitar. Given its age, the playing standards no longer match current requirements for string height at the lower end of the neck, but it has a nice, resonant sound because it is as light as a flamenco guitar. The strings are dead, and I believe it was originally a nylon-string guitar.
No cracks, a few small chips of varnish (see photos), but nothing structural; the ribs are also in good condition.
Tuners are working, with thin brass frets. Well-packaged shipping and risk-free delivery.
