Do you have a Hohner from 1934-1945 with a serial number on?
Send me a private message or comment on the German Accordion Problem spreadsheet to improve the statistics of the project and get an estimate of the production date of the box if it is not known.

Being a Hohner, it must have been a very moist cake ;)

Nice,  but that’s a lot of candles! I ‘d want 6 = ten years on mine, I don’t think I could blow out that many in one breath. Next year, so I guess I’ll have to build up to it!
