Worth a glance, even if you are not a potential buyer!
What do you reckon Theo, quite a "sympathetic" revamp of a 70? year old?

eBay listings are public domain, so it's a plain old hyperlink. Use the icon that looks like a globe and chain - seventh along the top of the message creation box, next to the one that looks like a padlock.

I must be in muppet mode too - didn't spot the number in the topic title!
Looks like its ready to play through the next half century, a very thorough job. The reeds look like modern Italian ones, though the picture quality is poor so its hard to be sure. Certainly not the originals which would have had zinc plates. My only small complaint would be the use of modern "ridged" pattern bellows tape, instead of something that would keep the look of the original fabric.

Stick the number into the search box in any ebay site (UK, US, Fr, De, It, NZ, Au etc) and it'll come up.

Half expected your comment about the tape!
It looks as though the ends have been repapered but "proper" tape used on the folds for durability. Perhaps, because they could not find a match they went for contrast instead, (pity they did not get all the stripes running the same way).
Incidentally F.J. Ratchford of Stockport do a paper that is a very close match to the original but it is a pain to use because it stretches so easily.
