What kind of concertina is this?

It looks the same as one I have listed/illustrated in my 1939 Hess, Klingenthal catalogue, described as a ,,Cromatic"-Konzertina, and I've seen similar examples that have a piano-system right-hand side, with a German-concertina diatonic left-hand side, just like it.

 

It's late here now, but I'll scan, and post, the listing tomorrow.

I think that woodworm has some concertina in it...

 

I counted out the number of worm holes. It is even, so the worm is out. No reason to worry.

I have one of these - fortunately not ridden with woodworm. A large concertina measuring 20.5cm across the flats.

The right side has the piano layout, covering 1.5 octaves from E (above middle C) to G.

The left hand is an anglo type layout with single notes. Top row in F and bottom row in C.

All buttons play double reeds.

The layout is as follows:

Top row  Pull/Push  C/F  E/C  G/F  Bb/A  D/C

Bottom row              G/C  B/G  D/C  F/E   A/G

 

I will attach a picture.
