I was researching my recently acquired Supertone Soprano ukulele and came across this fascinating and detailed history of the Harmony Company of Chicago, IL. Harmony was a huge manufacturer of stringed instruments, including thousands (tens? hundreds? a million?) of ukuleles throughout most of the twentieth century. In addition to the well-written article, there are many interesting historical photographs. If you're into vintage instruments and history, you might enjoy reading this one.
