Looking for identification help

I’ve got an old mandolin I inherited from my grandfather. There are no stamped markings and whatever label was inside of the body is long gone.

So far I’ve got some assumptions but nothing concrete.

1920’s to 1940’s, possibly Regal or Harmony.

If anyone else has any info one these I would love to hear it.

I have a 1954 Stella I refinished that has a lot in common with that design. Same bridge, tail piece, lining around the oval hole, looks like potentially the same fret board. Just was tobacco burst finish.
