I have, what I believe, is a 1920's weymann Parlour guitar style 24 based on what I was told and the description in the Vintage Guitar Price guide but can't find pictures of a style 24 anywhere.
It has a 37" overall length, the upper bout is 8 1/2", lower 12". The body is 17 3/4" long and the scale is 24 13/16", the nut is 1 3/4". attached are pics, thanks in advance for any suggestions or documentation of a Style 24.

We have a 1928 Weymann Catalog in our subscription section here

http://www.vintaxe.com/catalogs_america ... n_1928.htm

You will have to subscribe to view our catalog database and can do so here if you like -> http://www.vintaxe.com/subscribe.htm

I think your guitar looks the most like style 740 pictured on page 4 here

http://www.vintaxe.com/cgi-bin/vintaxe_ ... eymann_004

There are 3 models based on the same style in different sizes, they base it on body width at widest point. They have concert (13 1/2" model 740), auditorium (14 1/2" model 840) and junior (12 1/4" model 640).
