You may be able to buy from here. https://www.concertinaconnection.com/spares.htm -
Another example of circular label which says "Blood and Fire" and "Salvation Army". https://concertina.co.uk/stock-selection/anglo-concertinas/lachenal-26-key-anglo-in-g-d-8462/

Me too. But local musical instrument museum has very similar one named "Arietta".
-
Might be one of these?

As far as hybrid is concerned, I think reed layout is the same. Just the tone layout is different.

Japanese concertina player Ryo played same tune on 3 different concertinas for comparison.

How did you find your way to concertina?
Takayuki YAGI replied to Capitanya's topic in General Concertina Discussion
In the mid-1990s I saw Japanese musician playing Irish music with concertina and was attracted to the shape and the sound. But I didn't know how to get the instruments here in Japan. In 1999, I was at Custy's, Ennis, Co. Clare. And I got a Murdoch labeled Lachenal (refurbished by A.C. Norman). It was my first instrument. -
My friend in Australia once had a Kookaburra C/G and it was a beautiful and responsive instrument. I don't know if it's C/G, Bb/F or G/D, but I think you had better write down the key of your instrument.

Any info about Micheal Shannon from Doolin?
Takayuki YAGI replied to Takayuki YAGI's topic in General Concertina Discussion
I appreciate that information, thank you. -
How many concertinas have you owned/tried?
Takayuki YAGI replied to LR71's topic in General Concertina Discussion
Please see http://concertina.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2023/12/post-8caf76.html for the pictures and descriptions. All in Japanese but I think machine translation will do. Apart from these, I once owned amboyna ended Geuns-Wakker C/G which I sold to my friend. I tried so many concertinas and I don't remember how many. -

Thank you for the information, I appreciate it. -
Barleycorn now lists G/D (presumably the original is Ab/Eb) with circular hole with label. https://concertina.co.uk/stock-selection/anglo-concertinas/lachenal-30-key-anglo-in-g-d-8421/ One long-standing mystery has been solved.

I recently found an old tape named Doolin rescue. It includes one concertina track played by Micheal Shannon. https://www.discogs.com/release/7132923-Various-Traditional-Music-In-Support-Of-Doolin-Coast-And-Cliff-Rescue-Service I Googled but did not get much info about the player. Does anyone know more about him?

This may not be appropriate to put on the Buy and Sell sub forum since they are all not for sale, but this is my "miniature pyramid". The bottom one is standard size.

Big list of Anglo layouts

Strictly speaking it is not an anglo but anyway, here is the layout of 26 button Henry Harley CG. https://anglopiano.com/?HM_260_mK_10_sV_260_tX._10_cGGIijkLMNni_30_QPojqpSRuTwU._40_GjjlMNOopq_90_SrUTvuYw1x&title=Henry Harley CG 26 -

Here is a left hand side photo. 5th button (centre) is an air button. Right hand side photo for size comparison. And here is a sample clip. -

This is my Jones miniature in C (piccolo range). Greg Jowaisas gave me a memo but left accidental was reversed. Below is from actual instrument. https://anglopiano.com/?opqRSTst_80_VWuUwvYX._410_xZ21&title=Jones Mini C 10 -
If Jeffries, draw C# on 1st button and push C# on 2nd button will be needed, I suppose.

I generally agree with the above view, but I think the quality of the bellows would be fine for German. Anyway, I look forward to hearing more details.
