AndyNT Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Could you please help date my 32 key, metal-ended, metal button Anglo? The serial is 176651. There is written in pencil on both ends - S.A. , 2674 , G.T. , 27-8-47. I presume this points to previous Salvation Army ownership. And instrument has subsequently been retuned to G/D at some point. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes williams Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Hi Andy, We would estimate anglo 176651 as circa 1905. I'd be interested to know if the 'Lachenal' label hole in your metal end is circular or oval, as it seems to have a Salvation Army pedigree. We've seen that wooden ended SA instruments of a similar age had a circular hole and different Lachenal label (see here) so it would be helpful to know if yours was the same.

AndyNT Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Thanks Wes The label hole is oval and was lacking a label when I bought it in the 80s. I can upload pics of the ends and the internal pencil marks if they would be useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cathasach Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 When I bought my concertina it was listed as serial number 8282 but I can't find that number anywhere. It's an Angelo 30 button Bb/F that looks like it was rosewood that's been stained or painted black. Pic of the only numbers I could find below.

wes williams Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Yes, thats the serial, but unfortunately I can't read it from your photo. At a guess its 172xxx which would be circa 1902. Anybody else have any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
