Headstock and tuner buttons suggest the same factory as Klira and related German brands of the 50s and 60s. Kind of the Harmony of Deutschland.

| German manufacturers may have produced a lot of strange guitars - but this one was made in Austria. The green label says "Made by A. Hasslwanter, Innsbruck". |

b0b, you're right. I've never seen one like it on this side of the Pond. I wonder what kind of bracing it has. Looks like it's using a nut riser, and is a round-neck???

Yeah, but they have their own language,,,, somebody said,,,,,...... |
Bier - Austrian for beer.
In all seriousness, the seller emailed me hoping to learn more about this guitar, and perhaps find a buyer. It would be nice if we could stay on topic.
