Moglie also wrote out a list of the names signed to the inside of the violin top which consists of three separate repairers/ cleaners of the instrument; all together the provenance documentation consists of five pages; also includes various packs of strings, a bow, violin rosin, and two cases (one is an early 19th century wood case made by Captain Blair Bolling (the son of the original owner of the violin, Archibald Bolling) and one a black snap shut case).
