Martin Guitar Catalog 1941

1941 – for the music world, it was a time of deep soul and fervent expression against a backdrop of global tension. As the likes of Glenn Miller’s Orchestra and Billie Holiday graced radio airwaves, weaving auditory tales of love, longing, and life, there was another name deeply etched in the annals of music history.

That name was Martin. Deep in the heart of Nazareth, Pennsylvania, the C.F. Martin & Company had been quietly and diligently crafting guitars that would come to define generations of music. The 1941 catalog was more than just a product listing – it was an encapsulation of history, craftsmanship, and the indomitable spirit of music.
