1This is a collection of "ana," got together by an enthusiastic and discriminating amateur. It is admirably described by its title-page, and will doubtless be freely drawn upon (without acknowledgment) by future essayists on the instrument.

7This account of three very marvellous instruments was never published, but was issued to accompany a set of three photographs with which it is usually found. It is of great rarity. The carving of these wonderful fiddles was executed by Domenico Galli, a celebrated carver of the 18th century, and Signor Valdrighi's notes form a most valuable contribution to the history of the violin.

13In this opusculum we find the foundation of Signor Valdrighi's monumental work "Nomocheliurgografia" [Nos. 1204-5]. It contains a general catalogue of the Modenese violin-makers from the beginning of the 18th century to 1878. The brochure is reprinted directly from the types of the Modenese journal "Il Cittadino."
