Antique squeeze box accordion music maker 1920s 1930s​

Any ideas about this one? An old concertina-like item on sale today for $75 Canadian. Pretty good deal from I'm guessing 1920s or earlier? Is it a toy? No buttons, but they could be lost. The metal tabs holding the edges together look like early Hohners from the 1910s, so maybe German? I've never seen a concertina with sheet-metal ends like that. Neat!

I'd like to know more. Not sure I have room on my shelves though. Let me know if you get it or find out anything?

There's more photos and a minute-long silent video of the seller stretching the bellows over here on the sale site:

Concertina.net is a good place to ask about it. Lots of friendly, knowledgeable people.
