As a follow up to this , Thanks for the help here and also after some help from a few other people in the know I have decided list the concertina on ebay as per this link . We shall see how that goes . https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/183866727814?ViewItem=&item=183866727814&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:AU:1123 Thanks again Steve

We are in Nelson which is a about 500 km away from him . I doubt it needs anything 'fixed 'on it , possibly a tune . Its been very well looked after , thats for sure . Thanks for the help so far . Thanks again Steve

Thats brilliant to read and get an indication of how expensive they were back then , But gets me a bit confused , when combining the ledger with the sales pricelist . As on the pricelist the octagonal are 40 and 41 and the ledger says 39 ( is that the model numer on the ledger ? ) http://www.horniman.info/DKNSARC/SD01/PAGES/D1P1690S.HTM And this has 68 note keys ( Unless I have to put my glasses on do a recount ) Would this have been specially made for someone . All very intriguing , its a real shame that I am not able to play this but am in search of a local who can ( we live in a relatively small town . )

Thanks for the feedback and info. The ledgers are very interesting , I think its fantastic to be able to go back and look through these ledgers and confirm certain things like the dates and info on items like this .

Morning from New Zealand We are after some advice on the best place to sell a 1922 Wheatstone . After the investigation from the serial number which is 29205 we find its a model 39 , made on the 22nd of may 1922 . 8 sided , metal one end , wood the other . it has a total of 69 keys , It it better to just put a listing on eBay for this or is there a better place a concertina of this quality should be sold . If anyone wants more information and pics or is willing to make an offer , we can discuss it here or if you email me and I will send more pictures . I can be emailed directly on fernleighbooks@gmail.com
