Rhinestones for a Baldoni
« on: April 02, 2009, 03:27:18 AM »

Does any one know a source for rhinestones that could be used to fix up a 1929 Baldoni? It's a single row in D, 6 voice, with 47 of the 282 decorative rhinestones missing. I'm sure many of you have seen these little beauties with their Irish & American flags, shamrocks, names, etc. (and great sound). The hobby shops seem to carry only flat decorations. The ones on the accordion have a post that fits into a hole drilled into the box.
Many thanks, Ted  emcgraw@rochester.rr.com
