I've been rethinking my initial reaction to this instrument. Yes, it is very battered and ugly. But someone or maybe even several owners, have done their best, clearly at minimal expentiture (which I'm imaging was because they couldn't afford more) to keep this instrument playing. Perhaps it gave a little joy to some stark lives. It deserves a loving repair--or to live on with its components in other instruments.
