Sergio Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Fellow Squeezers, I have something a little different, a little unusual, in which 2x left over decorative ends are up for sale. These belonged to my first anglo purchase, a 44key that aside from the reeds, was in rather warped and savage disrepair, hence after many years trying to get the instrument fixed, I ended up selling the reeds, but decided to keep the ends. However, they have been sitting in my office cupboard for years, and hoping that someone might have some use for them? They have been professionally framed, and obviously made by Thomas Shakespeare - the RH side initials are T and S. Asking Price $600 AUD Happy to post internationally. Feel free in asking any further questions? Edited June 3, 2021 by Sergio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunks Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) What's the measurement across the flats? Are they both nice and flat with no dents or bends? Edited June 1, 2021 by wunks sp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 Yes, they are both nice and flat. However I will have to measure them for you as regards exact measurements! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Middleton-Metcalfe Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Oh that is just lovely. I can't really justify it at the moment but if I could I would keep that in my workshop as inspiration! I hope you find someone who values such work - hand engraved onto a beautiful and quite rare pattern design. Really great to see, its this sort of practice that has almost disappeared nowadays - though that's not to say it was even that common in the 19th century on a concertina. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawrence Reeves Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I owned a 38 key Shalespeare with the same pattern for years. I wish I had a need for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
