Not an exhaust pipe, but audio output jack for electric pickup, I suppose.

Thank you for indicating about the thread. So this is a kind of double reeded duet concertina (that may have been modified from an anglo concertina).

Just found on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/255249942276 8 inches across the flats is very large. So at the first look I think this is a baritone but I do not know the typical size of baritone instrument. Is there any possibility that this is a bass or twin-reeded ?

It is not as small as Traveller but ...

I noticed that Flying Duck Concertinas now introduce new "Dabbler" concertinas. https://www.flyingduckconcertinas.co.uk/dabblers.html

I found a relevant thread.

I once saw a "C STAFF MAKER" stamped instruments on ebay from Australia. That was 20 button with 118XX serial number (unreadable). The photo below is from ebay in 2007 (not mine).

According to this page http://www.concertina.com/chambers/lachenal-production/ anglos with reedshoe trademark had produced after 1879. And if my memory serves correctly, Jones had riveted action. So I think this one is Louis Lachenal.

This looks anglo, but I am not sure, might be duet...

Or may be this one ?

Is there any possibility of Erinoid?

Maybe it's a new concertina maker. https://www.facebook.com/BodandBox-Bodhranfr-469216453285747 or http://www.bodhran.fr/index.php/fr/

According to this article http://www.concertina.com/chambers/lachenal-production/ Edeophones were made between 1889–1933. But you may want to ask in "Dating A Lachenal From The Serial Number" thread to find out more precise year.

Thank you for the in-depth review and playing Cohen. I received my duckling from Paul a few months ago and that was my first Bflat/F. Compared to Lachenal, The button spacing is slightly wider(please see photo), but I got used to it soon. I am very happy with it.

That album is found on youtube, probably uploaded by TOPIC Records. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kBScS9byE7NVXUNDS89btd6uY2DZDrP7Y

Concertina Museum have 2 Crabb Englishes (Ref:C326 and C327) https://www.concertinamuseum.com/CM00326.htm https://www.concertinamuseum.com/CM00327.htm I also recall a large (9 inch across according to the description) twin reeded English with red bellows and straps made by Crabb was on ebay in 2011. I didn't bid on it but looked like specially made one.

Sorry for the thread drift, but I just noticed that ButtonBox now lists #33301 on sale. https://www.buttonbox.com/concertinas-in-stock.html

I once saw a 20-button wooden ended Crabb on ebay in 2017, which had metal plate with serial number. For example: These pictures were from ebay and I did not bid on it.

It looks strange. The Lachenal's reedshoe trademark is on the other side. And the ends look handmade. But the action looks like Lachenal's hooked type.

How about Harry Geuns ? He is based on Belgium. https://bandoneon-maker.com/jackie-and-jack/

Here, for example. https://concertina.co.uk/stock-selection/anglo-concertinas/gorgeous-lachenal-32-key-anglo-in-bb-f/

I too think the Lachenals with pierced sides are rare, but not non-existent. I saw Barleycorn once sold the Lachenals with pierced sides at least 3 times.

Another one came up from different seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/363497465923

How about the Button Box? https://www.buttonbox.com/concertinas-in-stock.html
