Two banjo makers named Isbell listed here http://www.mugwumps.com/AmerInstMkr.html. They may give clues to further searches.
Quack!

I recently purchased a banjo that has the inscription "The Isbell Artist" I am told that the company was only around for the year of 1894 but cannot find much information about it. Anyone out there also have an Isbell banjo or know where I can find information about them?
