A photo of the headstock would help.
The spelling, type of logo, and Flip-top (or not) are key features in dating.

The strings went thru the body, like a Tele, on earlier ones. These appear to be attache to the bridge.

Any cracks / repairs are also a major issue when it comes to value.

One that looks identical (without seeing the headstock) clicked off for $625.00 on eBay the other day. I think someone got a smokin' hot deal. Here's the link:

late 40's-early 50's - i see the headstock cover. looks nice. these sell all over the map from $650-$1000, though most shops will price them in the $1200 range and let them sit.
