A mandolina from Lviv hanging up against a yellow background. A beautiful mandolin from Naples made in 1764 hanging up against a red background. A style 4 mandolin from 1903 hanging up against a blue background. A black 10 string F-4 mandolin hanging up against a grey background.

Found myself unexpectedly with a day to spend in Phoenix, so I went to the excellent Musical Instruments Museum and ogled the mandolins.
