Thank you Dottie:)
I think someone was stoned to throw that out.I don't know much about musical instruments but seriously how could someone throw that out??!!
I don't know, but you know the old saying " one mans trash is another mans treasure". Thanks for the likes and loves.
Lucky you! Good grief, can't believe someone would throw out a Juzek violin. Ebay prices on these violins vary considerably.
Thanks marcobabe13 for the love.

Especially sinse you found it on the side of the road. I bet whoever he or she was had a sobering moment the next morning !! (No Pun intended) (:-D)
LOL I agree musikchoo, but in this case it was on top of a pile of trash. I think someone actually through it away. Thanks
