Check this out on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1426662280 Is this a baroque bow with a french frog (ha). Has some fool tightened this bow a bit too tight? Or could this somehow be a breakthrough design
[/B][/QUOTE] You know, at first quick glance, it really did look like an old viol bow, but I think this is an example of what happens when you leave the hair tight for 20 years.
I agree with Reedo. Which isn't to say that there aren't bows that are intentionally shaped like that. During a trip to Venice, I came across one of Dragonetti's bows; it could have launched arrows.
