A historic masterpiece for the utmost in musical standards, that was worked over completely and is ready to play; this fine Lamy violin bow bears the original stamp “A. LAMY A PARIS,” which is confirmed by a certificate issued by Jean-François Raffin of Paris. The Raffin-certificate is included in the price.
