Carved Heels Because heel carvings are such interesting and beautiful
features of many of these banjos, I have assumed that viewers might want to
survey and compare carving designs and workmanship. Therefore, in addition to
appearing with the other photos of each carved-heel instrument, I have clustered
all of them here for your convenience. They appear here in the same order that
they are found on the site. For almost all of the carved heels displayed
here, the photos posted of each banjo will include additional views of the heel.
