wheatstone bariton? MacCann

[Chris Drinkwater]

My wife has a 55 Button Baritone Maccann (Wheatstone) restored by Richard Evans. S/N 25661

And on the same page, S/N 25667, is a 43 key tenor duet, perhaps made for playing in a concertina band?

Sale results

 

1 A Duet System Concertina by Charles Jeffries (2) £3,300

2 A Baritone Concertina by Wheatstone, London, circa 1900 (1) £900

3 A Duet System Concertina by the Jeffries Brothers, (2) £3,100

4 A Twelve Sided Concertina by Lachenal & Co, London, (2) £1,400

 

So the prices to the buyer including Buyers premium and VAT are:

1 Actually a 39 key anglo in C/G old pitch £4,092

2 £1,116

3 Actually a 39 key anglo in Bb/F in A=440Hz £3,844

4 £1,736

 

I'd reckon that the C/G anglo was about right for price but the Bb/F Jeffries Bros looks a bit high for what it is. I wouldn't like to comment on the Wheatstone duet and the Lachenal Edeophone

 

Anyone know what the numbers in parenthesis are?
