1988 Black Bon Temps by Anthony Falcon Bb LIKE NEW on eBay

I'm listing my Anthony Falcon Bb on eBay if anyone is interested. Bb. Plays nicely and is as good as the day it was finished being built. No visible signs of wear. Built in 1988 and I am the second owner.

Happy viewing.

Wow, an amazing resemblance.

Hi Glenn,

I looked at the pics you have up on the auction page, and it is astonishing how much that accordion resembles my Bb Master accordion. Every thing looks the same: the color, the hardware, even the weird tape on the flappers and the frame.

Re: Wow, an amazing resemblance.

I call it my time warp box..

It was stored by the first owner..and played on a few Zydeco tunes in his band..but otherwise wasn't played.

I have never tried a Master, but this one is light and has the finish and wood working of the older boxes.

Metal buttons.. the smaller, slightly rounded tops, I think are out of production now.

The ONLY reason I'm selling is because I have two Bb's now and one has to go. Will be selling a C box soon most likely.

This will be a collectors piece like the Magnolia or S. Mouton boxes. Hope it goes back to Louisiana.. it has a whole lifetime of playing in front of it.

Probably won't relist if it doesn't sell. I couldn't get the pics on eBay to enlarge ( due to format size ).. but can send close ups if needed.
