Jones Label Needed

[varney]

I've had a Jones 30 key anglo brought to me for some repairs. Someone has poked their finger through the paper maker's label ( which looks like a reproduction to me ).

 

Does anyone have a Jones label for an anglo they could scan and post?

 

Many thanks,

Michael.

It's not perfect quality, but I hope this will suit your needs.

Here is a photo of the label on my 30 button Jones anglo.

The label reads

G. JONES

Patent Concertina

MANUFACTURER

360

COMMERCIAL Rd EAST

 

I hope this helps.

A reasonably clear scan of an existing Jones label can be had http://www.concertinamuseum.com/CM00343.htm here.

Or if you'd like a cleaner scaleable version have a look at what I did here. and here

Here's my contribution, a label from a wooden-ended, 32-button Jones anglo:

Not exactly mint condition, but the address is clear, and that raises a question. We appear to have three different street numbers: 350, 356, and 360. Did Jones at different times have three (or more) shops near each other on the same street, or have imperfect images resulted in misreading of the street number on some labels?

I just knew that somebody around here would notice that. Even as I was creating the .svg file in the previous post, I suspected that I'd have to catch a whoopin' for getting the address incorrect. And I do believe it is incorrect. Upon reviewing your much clearer photos, I believe that the correct address should be 350 because I basically just guessed while tracing the label shown at the Concertina Museum website. That image is neither very large nor particularly clear and so, faced with uncertainty, I pointed the mouse and pressed "fire". The file is easily corrected - I created it using Inkscape - and I will happily do so if consesus is that the number is 350. Or you are all free to download a copy and put in any number you like. It'll probably only matter to owners of Jones 'tinas but I enjoyed creating it on the sly when I was supposed to be working on boring routine design work.

And one more thing ---

 

It does pay to do a little light research before doing these things.

If I would only have read THIS before creating the label copy, I wouldn't bumbled the number.

 

Oh well. Live and learn..... and repeat the process.

Thanks to all of you guys for your help......I was able to get it sorted.
