Any idea what year these were made?

Additional photos of amp back/interior may help

The combination of the horseshoe pickup and 3 knobs on the steel places it at 1937.

Martin,
I owned a mint ‘36 Epiphone lap with the same style horse shoe pickup.
There should be a serial number stamped on the end of headstock.
The Epiphone website for serial numbers covers that timeframe.
Different sound then my Bakelite Ric but nice.
Arlen Roth plays one in his LapSteel video.
Regards,
Gary
