The Bowmakers of the PECCATTE Family Reg. N.Y.
Written by Paul Childs; foreword by Etienne Vatelot. Edition The Magic bow Publication; published in 1996. Text in French and English. 286 pages. 23cm x 30cm. abundant examples in a manner that is heaven-sent for anyone who really wants to see bows: page after page, with superbly photographed highlights of such important aspects as champfers, face-plates, and frogs, plus a clever double exposure that shows both sides of the frog from above simultaneously. In lieu of actually holding the bows, this is the next-best opportunity to see the work of these three masters of the craft. ~Strings, March 1998(click on images for larger version, when available)
