3 row, 3 reed (MMM) diatonic button box accordion made in Cleveland by Anton Mervar in 1926, in the keys of C,F,Bb. It is in good physical condition, bellows seem new, and it plays. Could probably use a tune up/service due to its age. It has a stepped keyboard with German fingering including standing keys/tones (gleichtons) in the 2nd and 3rd rows. Has 5 helikon basses. Bellows are in very good condition and may not be original. They were probably replaced at some point. Inside it has Mervar stamps with the date of construction as well as the Mervar sticker. The reeds may have been modified, tuned, or replaced at some point, as the reed blocks have John Mikus stamps on them . The reed blocks have D,G,C scratched out and now say C,F,Bb. "Krance" is also hand written inside, dated 1978. Comes with shoulder straps, a leather bass strap, and a carrying case in good condition. Has a palm air button. Beautiful blonde wood with nice inlays. Feel free to ask any further questions prior to bidding/buying, as sale if final. The instrument is described honestly and accurately. Free shipping.
