thanks!, and wow!, that was quick indeed.....the year 1897 was passed along when I purchased it, but I don't know what to make of the label.....would you say, dear Mr. Smith, that late 1800s might be a possibility considering what you can see?

that label is pretty mind boggling, I'm thinking czech cyrillic, ideas?

also, and I know you're good, so that's why I ask.....what do you make of the restoration/repair work (if anything)?

thanks again!
