Markoff, can you give me more details about the book?

[Markoff]

Yes,

Just found the link below so maybe something can be done?

A friend of mine was in Milan and Cremona summer of last year (on fiddle business) but could not find anything about it then.

This book could be a very useful guide to understand the historical events around the violins. I hope to find it.

Elisabetta Giordani, liutaio, Cremona has made mention of this subject on her website: which prompted further searches on my part.

I have gone deep into the past (old publications and manuscripts) with various biographical information concerning Guarneri del Gesu. Some dates concerning his birth always seem to conflict, except for a year date of death (1767) which I finally discovered but do not know if this is accurate.

Please, if you can, get me a copy, too. I will be happy to pay!

A copy of the book was gifted to me last week!
From first pages I've been reading, it seems to be very promising.

Mi è stata regalata una copia del libro. Dalle poche pagine che sono riuscito a leggere sinora, sembra essere promettente.

Sarebbe bello potergli dare una guardata

Ciao, Maestro Rampini and all!
Yet another fine genuine Giuseppe I.H.S.I.N.R.I. lives again!!

Hi Markoff, what genuine Giuseppe are you talking about?

[Markoff]

The "del Gesu" was in the 19th century brought to the state of Nebraska, USA, by a member of a family with the surname, Gumb (German descent).

To our current knowledge, this instrument isn't known to any dealer of record. Some restoration has been undertaken, now playable, but the owner wishes to have further cosmetic issues corrected.

How do I post images within the text frame? Or is a link necessary?
