Interesting, very old violin w. replaced neck

Interesting and old 4/4 violin. There is a crack at the front, a big, repaired crack and some repaired damages at the back and the neck seems to be replaced once. The branding at the back reads: "Concert Violin Straduari", the label inside the violin reads"Jacobus Stainer in Absam" (see pictures) The fingerboard should be removed and fixed better.The back was made out of 1 part. The overall length of the violin is 59,5cm / 23 3/8inch. The body is 36,3cm (14 1/4 inch). Instrument needs to be repaired, serviced and cleaned. If you have any questions, please ask.
