Irish Session Photos With Concertina?

[gcoover]

Does anyone have good photos of a 30-button Anglo concertina at an Irish session that could be used on the cover of a tune book?

 

Color or B/W, roughly square in size (after cropping), maybe even a bit artsy?

 

Or maybe even some original artwork?

 

In return I can offer copies of the book, full credit, the usual fame and glory, and with luck maybe even a few $.

 

Please send PM, or email to gcoover(at)swbell.net.

 

Thanks!

You could try my old mate Mike Lancaster, who specialises in Irish session pictures. He did the cover on one of Noel Hill's CDs. His website has several examples of anglos, including a session:

or something more whimsical:

I dare say a few $s would be involved but it would be worth it! His email is

I ended up using a photo from Randal Bays at Ceol Cascadia, but big thanks to Chas and Chris and Lawrence and everyone else for sending in some great possibilities. It's always great to have such support from the cnet community!
