I purchased this book over 20 years ago when I was going through my make my own stains and varnish's phase. Also, I always figured if became illegal to make rifles any longer, I would switch over to violin making. My main reason for purchasing this book was the chapter on finish's. This book was first written in 1885 so like a lot of historical books, it is packed with information, but is a hard read. Asking $25.00 for this book and I will ship it to you via USPS media rate.
Thanks for looking,
David
