Uncle Vic, on a Stromberg Marimba banjo

And here are some new pics just in, of Eddie Mondello, who is Victor's son, and a very good musician in his own right.
Eddie stumbled upon my website recently,and we have begun corresponding after a 30 year absence!
I believe the internet does bring us all closer together.
The banjo in the picture below, is the very same Stromberg Marimba that Uncle Vic is holding in the pic above.

A young Eddie with his Gibson, and a full array of Saxophonia!

That Gibson is still workin!
