Description

Vintage HOPF violin from the 19th c. Full size, great tiger back and sides. Nice shape other than the crack I am showing by tailpiece on front, as well as small hairline by neck.  Great patena. Stamped Hopf on back. Needs a new set of strings and set up. . New owner responsible to set it back up.  Comes with the old coffin case. The case has a concert adv pasted to it, says 1910, pearl moorhead and some other signatures.
