I’d appreciate a date on a Lachenal Edeophone, serial #49249. Crabb stamp inside. TIA.

Assuming from your photo that its an English we'd estimate circa 1909.

Hello, I've (with great trepidation) had to crack open my lachenal 30-key anglo concertina (bone button, 6-fold bellows, solid wood ends) for repairs, and have finally learnt the serial number - 144662. May I have a date estimate please?

Anglo 144662 is circa 1895.
