Hector J Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) I am looking for the poster (The Strad, December 1999) or drawings/measurements of this viola. Gasparo Bertolotti 'da Salò', Brescia, c. 1580, the 'Kievman' viola I haven't found any place on the internet where it might be for sale. So if any luthiers here might have these drawings or measurements available as PDF or JPEG file/files, I would gladly pay for them. The funny thing is that we pay for these things now but the original luthiers who actually handed drawings over to The Strad, didn't get any money for their work. I just had a conversation on the phone with Mr Hargrave so I am not making this up. I can send money through PayPal. If there is any other way of sending money, you can let me know and we'll work it out. Edited September 5, 2020 by Hector J Quote Link to post Share on other sites
