I just saw one of those go for $6000 on Ebay. Do you still have it?
Just kidding.
OK folks...this will probably be impossible but here goes.My mom gave me a bunch of pictures she had of me and she has one of me with my first electric guitar taken in 1971 (i was 9). The photograph is not very good but here it is. I am including a link to a larger version of the picture too. It is too blurry to read a name on the headstock but maybe someone will ahve a clue!
thanks,

The picture is fuzzy, but it looks sorta similar to a model that Sears sold forever. A friend loaned me a very similar looking guitar to play on as a kid before I got my first electric.
Guitars:
Fender 2006 MIM Fender Stratocaster HSS in 3TS
Ibanez RG 570 with a bridge Invader
ESP M II Deluxe with a Tune-o-Matic bridge
Eleanor, the magical, mystical Road Worn wonder Tele
Blackstar HT Club 40
it could have been bought at sears....not sure....gonna give mom a call right now to see if she remembers but i doubt she will.
I wish i had a better picture but that is the only one i know of that guitar

Hey Warren! Nice shot! Can't help you with the guitar, but I was 11 in 73 also. Are those Rhododendrons in the background? Looks like the goofy shots of me in front of the Rhodys in my Cub uniform from the same era. I was not cool enough to have a real guitar back then. ;-)

It looks like either a EKO, Teisco, or Hagstrom. If you do some searching you will note the similarity to the following (Hagstrom III):
Also, look on this page as your guitar looks like a few on there:
