Details and sources

Record note

If you can add to this record, we want to hear from you. As it stands, one or more sources name this maker and nothing else on this site confirms it: Die Geigen- und Lautenmacher vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart (1904); Die Geigen und Lautenmacher vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart (1922). Entries from 2 books stand under this name, and the software judged them likely the same person. Tell us if that is wrong and we will split the record. Nothing beyond what those sources state is invented here, so not established is the honest word for it.
