Mariette Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hi Jackdaw, I am very interested in this! I'm no concertina expert but i think it is an anglo rather than an English, do you have a picture of the ends? I've been burning through cheap ones and thinking about getting a better/older one and getting it refurbished for a long time now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pictures definitely show an English; you can tell by the thumb loop straps and finger plates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza12 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Definitely an English, but relatively small number of buttons. The "normal" Englsh" has 48 buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprunghub Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I think this is an interesting little English, because it has a lot of a Lachenal 'look' about it, but there are images in the Concertina Museum pages of 32 button Wheatstone "early" english concertinas, some with unusual fretwork. The serial number might tell more. Those early Wheatstone's have similar bellows papers and were from the time LL was still at/with Wheatstone's.
