Kevin,
Levin guitars were made in Sweden and were popular in the
1960's-1970's. They were bought out by Martin in the 70's.
They had a reputation of being decent quality, reasonably
priced guitars, and were most noted for their flat-top acoustics.

Yep... I had one of the flat tops in mid sixties. Wish I had kept it.
