1PREFACE
3SHERMAN, CLAY & Co. have had so many calls from their customers for really authentic old instruments that the necessity arose of adding to their large stock of violins a fine collection of old instruments.
5These were picked up in the various violin centers of Europe by their own buyers, were carefully selected, and are of undoubted age and merit.
7Sherman, Clay & Co., have endeavored as near as possible, to have a collection that would be representative of the various schools as known to-day, viz: Brescian, Cremonese, Neapolitan, Venetian, French, German, English, etc.—the instruments making up the collection varying in price from $50.00 upwards.
