Cool Label..

Besides the Label being a total fake and new, the period for Dini was about 50 years earlier and the town would be in Italian, not Latin. Many fakes made in eastern Europe show up with Latinized Label writing to look possibly fancy or indisputable as the 'old' language. Makers in those time were often not the most literate people and spelling by themselves of their own names varied on occasion.

Forget about that Label being anything in name related to the bass. The only relation it has is in the attempt to defraud the buyer.
