Violin is in beautiful condition. The horsehair part of the bow has frayed apart .

Has original hard case and parts as photoed. There was string / tailpiece repair in 1954. The inside also reads for Fecit Dresdae Anno 1890 ( or may be 1896). Has an M inside a circle that says Excelsior and Chicago Illinois. The makers marks names and dates are all on the inside and only able to be seen through the scroll opening and are very difficult to photograph.

Rare violin in great condition.

I have done my best to capture everything I could in the pics including parts and measurements.
