Thanks for responding, Tom and Godgi?
This does rather look and sound as if it came from the US Midwest ??

Hi Dingo, Really, I would say more like the northeast where there is more Scottish and French influence. Here in the midwest (where I live) the "anglo concertina" is not as common as the "chemnitzer concertina."

Hi tom?,
Thanks for sharing the interesting clip on concertina 101!
Phew! I doubt if I'll be picking up a concertina/ chemnitzer any time soon!?
I have trouble enough with a piano accordion ?
