International accordion

[Cristefer]

I have an international centromatic super accordion, it has 12 switches plus palm master with7 on the bass side it is double tone chamber, but I have not seen another one like it, maybe someone has

Interesting piece.

I have encountered several International/Lira "Centromatic" Super accordions, but never one with tone chambers. What is the model number?

I’m not sure there is no number on it, I bought 2 for 200 Andr his was one of them I paid 100 for it 8 years age but it was from the original owner” s son he had no knowledge after his dad died, but it has binci reeds

Welcome Cristefer! Very nice. I have that Lira non chamber version. It’s very nice as well but less feature rich. Too big for festivals, etc. but nice design and sound.

 

[Cristefer]

Very nice accordion, just still doesn’t explain, mine perhaps mine is a special order, I have off this Saturday, perhaps we can inspect it together

Possible, I think yours seems stellar. I would love to check it out, experience the cassotto versus non, unfortunately I’m on the other side of the big pond…..

All Lira accordion models were of excellent construction.
Pic's of the inside will help to value it. It should have hand made reeds with
the name Lira stamped on them.

 

[Cristefer]

I will post pictures of the inside shortly

 

[Cristefer]

The inside has stamped binci, polished blocks, double tone chamber,

 

[Cristefer]

Ok I found some stamping on the reeds, so this is what it looks on inside

 

[Cristefer]

I think it says 21339 gratiiot ave, Michigan, humm thought they only had 2 locations, but still doesn’t reveal who ordered or where this unique accordion was made, please help stamps are on the reeds

 

[Cristefer]

Let me correct it says 21330 gratuity ave East Detroit Michigan

 

[Cristefer]
