Stonitsch Dulcimer, Brooklyn NY
Like my cimbalom, I found this at the Pease collections of Historical Instruments in Palmer MA in April 2004.
This maker is mentioned in Paul M Gifford's book The Hammered Dulcimer - A History. He feels that despite the name and the location, which might suggest a Ukrainian style instrument, that it is a one-off American design. I'm making a bridge for it and will be stringing it in steel.
