Bazillionaire dreams crushed but....Gand label

[Stringsnapped]

Hey. Another newbie here. Ive done a bunch of research about my uncle's violin. Pretty positive the label is fake lol but I have learned a ton. Interesting journey into old violins. As a newbie how do I post pics to get some info about it and show off some interesting stuff....like the friedrich & bro chin piece with the church and graves carved in it? Anyway he got it at 12 in 1955. His aunts owned a music school in NYC. It's Labeled Gand Luthier eleve Lupot 1830. Which Gand did study under Lupot but not in 1830. Has a Friedrich & Bro chin piece from NYC. That guy died in 43 I think. He did import violins and has some interesting info online but I cannot find another chin piece remotely similar to this one? It looks like maybe it let me upload 1 pic but not anymore. Maybe as a comment?

Welcome to the forum.

Try uploading your other photos but make sure they are under 2mb each in size otherwise they may not upload.

The 1830 date isn’t a reference to when Gand Studied under Lupot, but represents the date that the instrument would have been made (assuming the label were real).

Thanks guys. I didnt not respond on purpose it said I couldnt post anymore for 24 hours. Is there a way to post the pics elsewhere so it doesnt take up so much space? I will try to resize not sure how to do that.

Do ig links work? https://www.instagram.com/p/CRMYhstrE3z/?utm_medium=copy_link if so Ill add more there and do that. I think I have slightly better photos of the label. Hard to do w a flashlight and a cellphone. I also have old bows and other stuff in the case. I know it needs some babying should have seen how it was when I got it :/
