Are there any John Friedrich experts out there. I just located a 3/4 John Friedrich & Bro violin. It is very high quality and was antiqued at the time of making. The label said #15 Cooper Institute, New York. I am wondering if anyone can decipher the "Cooper Institute" part of the label. There is no sign of a "Made in Germany" stamp, so I think it may have been made in New York. No dates other than a May 6 93 penciled in underneath the bridge. I am also wondering if John Friedrich was making violins in 1893?
