S.S. Stewart "Universal Favorite" banjos were made in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1880s-1910s. Sam Stewart, the company's owner, died in 1898, and banjos with serial numbers higher than ~ 50000 are likely to have been made after his death. Note that the quality of Stewart banjos noticeably declines during this period. This fine example of his "Universal Favorite" is a No. 3 model bearing serial # 17243 was built circa 1896.
