    John Dilworth+

    BAGANY Worked circa. 1822 Pottendorf Austria. Eccentric maker. Produced a violin with an iron top plate. Unsurprisingly unsuccessful.

    Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

    Auch einer von den unglücklichen Reformatoren des Geigenbaues. Er erfand
    Geigen, deren Decke aus Eisenblech hergestellt wurde, die aber trotz
    ihrer Billigkeit – das Stück kostete 4 fl. 48 kr. C. M. — die Welt nicht
    eroberten.
