    Description

    Offered is a vintage (year manufactured unknown) TANZBAR 16 note player concertina made in Germany. Overall it appears fairly complete. It's missing the rewind crank (should be easy to fabricate or replace) and 2 of the fake buttons (1 on each end). The bellows are in good condition with no visible holes or other damage. The screen behind the 16 intake holes needs attention (2 have holes in them). There are numerous minor scratches (should be easy to touch up), but no major gouges or other damage. The operating lever return does NOT function properly (it works, but hangs up on return to start position) and requires attention. The hole with the circular scratches (10th photo) is where the rewind crank is normally stored. It is also missing the leather hand straps on each handle.
    Included are 2 music rolls (No. 397 "The Song is ended"  by Irving Berlin and No. 315 "When you and I were Seventeen" by Chas. Rosoff)
