Mike Jones Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Has anyone on this forum done an analysis of the Wheatstone ledgers to estimate the numbers of Anglo (Not English) Baritone and Bass concertinas made by Wheatstone? After 9 years of my searching Chris Algar has found a Baritione for me (thanks Chris), so they must be quite rare. Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Barr Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) I have a 40B Anglo and she is beautiful. Ledger shows she was built in 1921. Next summer she gets to have a 100 years old birthday! Edited September 7, 2020 by Doug Barr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Jones Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 Thanks Doug, mine was 100 years old in April this year, it shows signs of being extensively used and only has 30 buttons, nevertheless I'm having fun getting used to its foibles. I don't have any photos yet. Yours is very handsome and adds to my knowledge of how many Wheatsone Baritones exist by 25%. I notice that yours has paired screws at the corners locating the metal ends whereas mine only has single screw in each corner like most Trebles i've seen.
