No, but which bow? I'm sure he had many fine bows.  In fact a colleague
just told me that he (Heifetz) had given Eugene Fodor one of his bows,
a specially tooled and ornamented specimen.

I'm also suspicious of the "inheritance" factor.  If this is a youngster
the chance he would have been playing when Heifetz was still alive are
small.
