Dickerson lap steels were made by Delbert Dickerson and are the precursors to Magnatone lap steels. See "The Hawaiian Guitar" edited by Lorene Ruymar for more information on these guitars.

I have an old Dickerson, it isn't a bad little practice guitar, altho, the pickup is unbalanced string to string...
Happy New Year,
Mike
