Photos would be very helpful here.I bought a Crabb anglo 38key. I am interested in when it was made. It is stamped with J.Crabb and son makers London. It looks like a Jeffries. I've opened some of it up but couldn't see anything. There is no serial number. Is there a specific place inside where more information could be found, e.g. inside bellows? Any help would be great.

A four digit number may be found either in pencil or impressed in the inside of the bellows frames.
Be interesting to me to know if the mark is actually stamped or engraved.

Hi. Geoffrey (Crabb), I'm sorry I have to contact you through concertina.net but I tried emailing you about my crabb to give you more information but there was a problem with the sending of the email. It would be great if you could give me your email to clarify I've got the right one. My email is oftennis@gmail.com. Thanks.
Address on it way
Geoff
