hi all i may be able to add a little more info about my great uncles concertina up for auction on e aby a man came to view it today and apparently it is a whaetstone aeola...and it is a tenor treble he says this explains the unusual layout of the lower notes....hope this explains some questions for you all many thanks to you all for your interest and information on this one ...louise

HI ALL THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR INFORMATION SOME OF IT...FASCINATING WELL ACTUALLY ALL OF IT FASCINATING BUT SOME OF IT BAFFLING.... COULD THE DIFFERING MEASUREMENT BE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE WIDTH SPAN OF THE HANDS OF THE PLAYER....THIS MAY SOUND DAFT BUT MY GREAT UNCLE WAS A VERY TALL MAN WITH HUGE HANDS AND NOT BEING MUSICAL MYSELF NOT KNOWING BUT I WOULD ASSUME THIS WOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO A CONCERTINA PLAYER.....MAYBE YOU ALL CAN ENLIGHTEN ME FURTHUR

HI ALL JUST FOUND YOUR WEBSITE I WISH I HAD FOUND IT A FEW DAYS AGO... I HAVE RECENTLY INHERITED A CONCERTINA FROM MY GREAT UNCLE AND DID NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM AND HIM BEING THE ONLY MUSICIAN IN THE FAMILY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO GO ABOUT SELLING IT...SO WITH THE MODERN WONDERS OF E BAY I LISTED IT YESTERDAY.....I JUST WONDERED IF ANYONE COULD HELP ME TO KNOW WHAT A REASONABLE PRICE FOR IT WOULD BE IT IS A WHEATSTONE CONCERTINA....AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION IT HAS 7 BELLOWS AND IT HAS 48 KEYS.AND THE ORIGIONAL BOX ..MY GREAT UNCLE HAD THIS MADE TO MEASURE AROUND 1939 IT ALSO HAS THE SERIAL NUMBER ON IT.....ANYONE WHO WANTS TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS TO HELP JUDGE THE CONDITION CAN LOOK ON E BAY......I JUST WONDERED NOT KNOWING A LOT ABOUT CONCERTINAS IS THIS A SORT AFTER INSTRUMENT
