Default Help with Bass Identification

Hello!

I just picked this old girl up! She needs some restoration work and I'm shopping around to see who I want to fix her up for me (new bridge and probably take the top off to repair a few cracks in the top). Not much sagging in the top and otherwise looking pretty healthy!

In the meantime - I'd love to get some thoughts about where she might have came from! She has a sticker inside that says "Made In Germany - Made in Germany" but this looks too new to be original. I'm thinking a late 19th or early 20th c chech or bohemian . Any other thoughts?

I know I probably need to add some more photos so let me know what might be helpful. string length is 42 3/4!

Thanks
