Misc. Notes From the uploader's library. The violin part contains a tattered second copy with some incognito markings (in French) in blue pencil. The Girod and Kistner edition may have been published simultaneously, as well as the Büttner edition mentioned on the Kistner edition Title Page, so 1863 for the Girod edition is uncertain.
