Malcolm, Love it.

Adam, How about this one -- only 5 rows, but 10 keys!

9 rows and a Uniform Keyboard too, that Gary Blair fellow must be a collector:

Is that 9 row sporting a 160 bass?  Couldn't count 'em all.  What do the additional 4 rows on the treble side do, too?  Are they dummies designed to wow the other accordion players?  (http://deephousepage.com/smilies/scratchchin.gif)

I couldn't count 'em either....

Reckon it's more than 160 though.
