Bazza12 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Hi all. Not new, but the old story of dating 48key concertinas. No.1 Lachenal (restored) no. 45815 (according to label on baffle cloth). Rosewood? flat ends (very dark stain). Bone buttons. Brass reeds in brass frames. Originally 4 fold card bellows, now 5 fold new. No.2 Lachenal no.53176. Identical to no.1. Original 5 fold bellows. Damaged slightly. No.3 No name label, as no baffle cloths, but looks similar to nos 1 & 2. No.35035. Rosewood? flat ends (very dark stain) Bone buttons, but bushed through ends. Ex Salvation Army instrument, still has music stand bracket on. Mix of steel and brass reeds in brass frames. 5 fold bellows. Nos 2&3 to be restored eventually. Sorry, but can not seem to load photo on this mobile. Any ideas please. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza12 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Thanks JimR. I was hoping that Dowright would pick up my post. I did not know I could post direct to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
