The violinist and his violin

People do what they can.  Everybody is doing the very best they can at any given moment.  My friend
Michael N. picked up this little gem many years ago from a neighbor who had immigrated to the US from Poland.  He was a violinist and played in the National Orchestra of Poland for some number of years prior to leaving the country.  Now I have no way of verifying this, yet.  My friend doesnt drive and is fully involved in the many aspects of his day to day life but has asked that I help him first acquire the provenance of this violin if it is available.  Provided it is then warranted I will be assisting him in locating a buyer.  He thinks it's from somebody named Strat-something or other........

Really??

By god the story was fantastic and I learned why many call this the perfect instrument.  It wasnt a Strat but I found a new friend and realized I already had one walking beside me.  Thank you MDN
