1890's CF Polish accordion.

I am selling off some of the collection of oddball instruments in my shop.
It has what looks like a piano keyboard but the white keys are the C row and the black are the F.
This one is most likely of polish make and there is a nearly identical image Russian accordion history chart.
LOTS of pics for the curious.
It is in CF with a couple of extra accidental notes on the spare keys.
I will stick the pics I took up on flickr so they do not go away when eBay is done.

There's been a couple of Ludwigs on eBay recently, with similar looking keyboards. Listed as "Piano Tone" and "Chromatic", I've convinced myself that they are melodeons, but with alternate black and white piano type keyboards.
I almost had a go at one which looked half decent, as opposed to the £9 one which looked pretty rough. But in the end, I decided that I'd quite enough projects to come home to, and I'd spent more than I really should have, too!
