Can you help me identify this anglo?

My german almost-tina

Nice In some ways similar to mine, in others (such as the flat mounting of the reeds and the quality of the fretwork) rather nicer. Does it play ok?

 

Here's a picture from my similarly reeded square German concertina c. 1875-1880. You can see where some of the reeds have been filed to tune them.

 

Thanks! It's helpful to see pictures - confirms that I have indeed understood the descriptions of tuning.

 

 

I've got as far as buying a set of appropriate files, but have now realised that half of the reeds are inside the box, which may or may not be glued shut... Hmm... Also, sadly, it's accordion reeded in the sense that the reeds sound in pairs, so there's no point in only tuning those I can easily access . I'll see how it goes...
