They specialized in "novelty" instruments that bridged traditional music styles with more innovative designs, including violin-ukulele hybrids, zithers, and Hawaiian tremolos. Many of their instruments were sold through catalogs and intended for home musicians looking for a creative musical experience. This Violin Uke is likely an antique, given that the Marxochime Colony was most active in the 1920s to 1940s, which makes it approximately 80-100 years old. Its design and condition, coupled with the original, fragile music sheets, add to its historical appeal, making it a beautiful addition for collectors or musicians interested in vintage and unusual instruments.
