I have a box of very old strings that was given to me by a woman who played cello many years ago. I wouldlike to know what year they are from. One package is Wound on Gut C String. Thepackage has a lighthouse on the front and in the light beam the words "Bruno Means Security." The price is one dollar and seventy five cents. (good old days) The other packages say Red-O-Ray, Silver Plated Copper Wire. Saturated with a red, moisture-repelling preparation that strengthenss and gives life and durability to the string. Every String "Quintenrein" Anybody heard of these? DG
