Laurie, The smaller bodied Baritone (Favilla Bros.) was most likely built between 1948 and 1953.
The larger bodied Baritone's are built between 1957 and 1959. After 1960 a yellow label was placed inside the instrument which bore the model and serial number. Between 1953 and 1957 a serial number was stamped in ink inside the body.
