it).Inside my violin is a piece of paper that reads: Copy Of (in dropped 
slanted lettering on the first line) Josef Guarnerius (second line) Made 
In (third line) Germany (fourth line).

Inside the box are some 
really old strings.Some are patented 1911, some are williamson or williams 
or something like that and son from Chicago strings and those are not 
opened or put on.

Does anyone know about this type of violin 
and its value, date or date of the case?It is not a coffin case, but it is 
wood with leather or leather-like covering.The hinges and clasps are still 
working, but are in very poor condition to look at.

having it looked at by a knowledgeable violin dealer or appraiser.
