Danke- I have a feeling that the seller wants $2.5 for it- the figure in that wood, the fit, feel and balance--like a Strad violin, not that I have ever handled one. As Bogie said in "The Maltese Falcon" "The stuff dreams are made of"! Of course, if Sir John Gielgud had played that Sam Spade role, he might have said it thusly: "Indeed, the stuff of which dreams are made"-- Either way, I don't get knocked over a barrel on very many shotguns, whether side-by-side or over and unders, but this one-took my breath away- but, thanks to your sound advice, not my 401K-- Later- Der Fuchs!!!
