Any idea who this maker is? The fiddle seems to be hand made and pretty old. The previous owner said it was from the 1870s but I'm doubtful.

Your picture doesn't show many details, but from what I can see it's branded Carl Vulzar, a "Verleger"- ( Distributor / wholesaler) in the general Makneukirchen area circa 1900 made as Dutzend Arbeit by anonymous cottage workers in Schoenbach in Bohemia, a few miles from Markneukirchen. Essentially the German equivalent of a Lark, so not much value or interest.
