Always learning!
When you are infected by the accordion bug, resistance is futile 
I saw this for sale at 35€. Adding shipping and insurance, the grand total was 42.80€
So, you know how this ended...
My plan for this one, once I fix some muted reeds (just a few), is to use it as a beginners instrument for me (I still need to learn the basics) and then also for my father, who has some trouble with the 80 bass one (he is almost 89 and also a beginner)
And then, when my grandson visits us in August, he will be four and a half years old, so this one for sure will fit him!
It has arrived with a nice original case:
And even an accordion method, with a 1976 handwritten date on it, which should be around the birth date for this small instrument:
It looked fine:
The brand was barely visible:
And inside, after some light cleaning, it looks and works mechanically fine:
A very complex bass mechanism:
The bellows are also nice and not leaking:

I know for most of you this is just a toy. But, well, I think it can have its uses in my case.
Another brick in the wall!
Next step is to open it...
