<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 59737, member: 78"]Hi Mill Cove,</p><p> If you look at the back, the wood is really smooth most older wood would have not a rough surface just not as smooth. The sharp edge on the back of the frame would be not as sharp. Of course looking at a photo is not the same as "touchy feeley". The bow on top just looks newer. If you can see the back of the bow and the backing is more rounded instead of cut straight it would be the next place I would look.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
