Re: Franz Schwarzer Perfecta Zither - Style A
the adornment on the perfecta "a" contrasts to the lack of inlay on another schwarzer serial #10883 (could possibly be 10863) which i have nick-named "boomer". photo attached.

Re: Franz Schwarzer Zither Table
the square inserts are virtually identical to the unsigned table we received from "tante ella", who had lived in the st louis area for many years.
this table is in florida at the moment, and will end up with cousin hans mueller and wife peggy, probably this fall.

Re: Ludwig Sollinger
notice the guitar player on the right. his instrument is in a lap position, similar to that in the photo or zitherist rudolf mueller and unknown guitarist guitar (munich 1923, interesting times) shared with dave earlier.

Re: Franz Schwarzer - Model 21
having had two schwarzers, my experience is that tone is inversely proportional to "schmuck" (frosting): the less decoration, the better the tone.
the one with much inlay is now in the schwarzer museum in missouri.

Re: Dr. Zither meets Andreas Erber
using the height of the weizen glass (usually 24 cm) as reference, the playing surface height of the table in the picture is then approximately 72 cm, and
the box on the chair is then approximatly 12 cm,
subtracting, we then end up with a playing surface height of approximately 60 cm.

Re: Franz Schwarzer Table Zither Advertisement
nice idea with the folding legs, but would the ankle-height "trestle" get in the way, and distance the player from the strings???
