The above bass is very similar to what I recall through interactions with David Walter years ago. I played it and 2 other of his basses in David's apartment in 1973. It had light varnish, man's head at top of the peg box, same size. It was a fine bass and played very well.
David loaned it for exhibition to the Lincoln Center Library around 1972-1973. It was featured in its own locked glass box.
David also loaned the bass to one of his students who competed in the Juilliard Double Bass Concerto Competition (featuring the Dragonetti) around 1973.
