I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share some photos of Consalvi's engraving work. Im particularly interested in seeing some close up's of his Gryphon peg head inlays. I have been googling,and searching on BHO,and finding lots of articles,and pics relating to the banjo in the museum in Boston,but not much else.



 Any help is greatly appreciated!

Also check out the forthcoming issue of Fretboard Journal (Winter Issue #24) on sale soon. Should have a well illustrated article on Consalvi, written by yours truly.
