I agree, it doesn't look like it's worth over a few hundred. I believe you're also correct about the old Hohner reeds vs. the reeds with the 'O' stamp, in the big three, of the day.

My 1920's three stop Hohner, in the key of the highest 'A' possible, guzzled far more gas than my four stop Globe in standard 'D', even with mostly the same kind of refurbishing Elton and I did. Reinforcing the reed blocks with wood glue is a must, with all those pine reed blocks. The gaps between and beneath each reed chamber beg to filled! Easy job, carefully applying the glue with a tooth pick.

It was disappointing when my '20's Hohner broke about three reeds. Unfortunately, finding mid and low bank reeds in high A, is impossible, without finding another of similar design, in that key.

Description incorrect.. BNOT a "Cajun" accordion.

Not the prototype for the HA114.. there were Hohner 1 row 4 stoppers before this.

Seller is not a box person and hopes to make a home run.

It would be hoped the "master technician" did not booger up the box.

I'd be interested if it was an LMMH and original internally and a good player.

It would make a good busking box drawing a lot of attention.

I would pay $400 max if in good order.

Jim is your Hohner A long reed plates or individual ?

I have a similar 1926 3-stop box, with no bass reeds.

Bohemian- It has individual reeds. Missing 3 plates (technically 6 reeds... I'm constantly fighting the habit of labeling a reed plate a reed), on one mid bank. Got any? And it seems I cannot find the chord plate for the bass side...

Reason I thought the Ebay item was a prototype for the 114, was the time tested tacky floral designs

I have a full set of A reeds from an HA 112 dating to the fifties

It is of course mm.......

In Catalogue No. 700 (c.1930) it's listed as "Large size German type of Hohner model No. 724/10/4.

There were earlier 4 stops, but not with pokerwork decoration.
