What you've got is referred to,for obvious reasons, is a Cowboy guitar. Can't say who exactly made or sold yours, but these were pretty cheaply constructed, low priced guitars made mostly to appeal to kids. A lot of companies made these. People do collect them. The more elaborate the decoration the more desirable it is as a collectible. Yours is pretty sparse compared to others. Here's a great site dedicated to this type of guitar.They have contact info.Maybe they can give you more specific info about yours.

I am stumped.This is an older post and I am new here. If you ever find this out please let me know. I collect small Harmonys .
This apears to be a Supertone Gene Autry Roundup by the slotted head
but does not say Gene Autry at the bottom of the lower bout.
All gene Autry roundups supertone and later silvertone with plain head not slotted,had pin bridges and spuce top. Yours has floating bridge and non spruce top maybe birch. Also the top looks newer than the rest of the guitar

do some research into richter ,gretch, del oro , as even martin made cowboy guitars as well as a number of companies from germany and elsewhere.
