I would post the photos directly here, but they are Macromedia Flash objects and I don't believe the Cafe allows that.

Bill-
Is it Item ID # 2013878?
I can't see any pictures from your links... but when I looked through what was available on the site, I thought it might be that one.

That is a tough one. I hesitate to say italian but the headstock resembles some Demeglios.

Here is a screen shot.

From the style I don't take it to be Italian, Romanian maybe. Are there any labels in it?

Apparently not.
I have placed a modest bid that is currently the high bid, but I don't think I will up my bid if knocked out of the high bidder spot.
Jim how is the repair/restoration of the bowlback you purchased from shopgoodwill going?
