David Colpitts Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 As a fan of Bakelite and concertinas I must say I am duly impressed! Have you had a look inside? Bakelite sidenote: I used to teach Technology Education ("shop") to seventh and eighth graders, and we had a 1950's vintage phenolic molding setup that, with heat, pressure, and some stink made "coasters for your cold drinks in the summer time." Said "coasters," upon close inspection, had little rim-dents molded in that made the coaster surprisingly reemble ashtrays. And, thanks to Dr. Baekeland, they'll probably show up in archeolgogical digs in central Connecticut in a few thousand years. The first, and best "synthetic" for industrial applications!

Daniel Hersh Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) These show up occasionally on eBay and are generally assumed to have been made in Germany or possibly Czechoslovakia. Edited May 2, 2021 by Daniel Hersh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
