English 40 Button Crabb


Mavis

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I just bought an Crabb 'English' concertina. It has 40 buttons, but no 'air' button.

 

The ends are metal, with fairly simple fretwork.

 

Someone suggested it may be a student model.

 

Could someone please tell what year it was made, and by whom.

 

The number stamped into the metal is 18087.

 

I will attempt to add 2 photos.

 

Mavis.

Geoff Crabb...from the Crabb family of concertina builder may be able to help you out. He is also a member of this forum. He may reply here..or I can send you a PM with Geoff's email address. Geoff has records from his family who made excellent concertinas for more than 150 years,
