    Description

    I believe this Violin is
    genuine a original old one and needs to be
    restoring by some one that knows how.
    Story,
    My grandfather brought this back from Over Seas, way back. but I'm thinking it was from world war 1 or 2 but
    not really sure how old this is. but it was old when he took it off a dead soldier in the war.
    then it was given to my Dad when Grandfather died,
    Dad wanted to restore it, but took it apart and lost parts to it, as we didn't find anymore of this when he died.
    So I'm thinking it must be from the 30's or maybe even early. I'm no expert so you be the judge as to it's age.
    it's very fine in the making of it. I'm thinking it's made of Tiger Maple wood.
    the case is torn up and most likely not any good.
    as you can see in pictures this is a valuable instrument by the way this is made and the grain of the
    (I think
    tiger
    maple
    ) tiger wood.
    I think this could be worth up to ,000.00 - ,000, (if it was all restored, Right), but it's just a guess, I'm no expert so you be the judge.
    You can look up this site, to get a idea of what you'll need to restore this, alto these are all new parts, not old parts
    so I'm not sure if I would use new parts on a a old instrument like this one. but it will give you a good idea.
