Featured Any Russian Accordian Player's Here?

Hi,
I found this at my local thrift this morning; it is in beautiful condition & when I went to pick it up, it's bellow opened & a note played .
So I bought it!
But I can't find another with a similar nameplate - maybe it's the model name?
Does anyone know who the maker is? And is it worth the $125 i paid?!
Thanks all

 

Москва (Moskva) is the Cyrillic spelling of Moscow.
Here is another Москва brand accordion, but I have no idea how the quality and value relate to yours:

Can we hear Lady Of Spain??

 

Everyone know the old joke? "What's the difference between an onion and an accordion? No one cries when you chop up an accordion."

I always run for the hills when I see accordions at sales. Such a finicky market with a lot of nuance.

I found this sold listing for one like yours. Seems to have been given a once over by a music company.

 

Thank you Any Jewelry & Sabre 123 - i can breathe a little easier!
Pearlsnblume & Debora - i think a video is a good idea; i will warn ahead that the only time I've played before is when I accidentally let go of 1 side & it "played" as the bellow unfolded when the end fell to the floor!
Thank you all!!

 

OK, now...what's the translation from Cyrillic to English for Accordion? A curious mind inquires.

 

usually the more buttons the better with accordions, means its not a starter/novice model so thumbs up


"What's the difference between an onion and a set of bagpipes"

 

See: Accordion and also banjo.

 

Thanks - any idea how to tell how old it is?
Also, it has 52 of the yellow & black buttons on lowest side in 1st photo - is those what you count for description?
If so I think mine matches Any Jewelry's link?

Finally, what color green is that?! I'd call it lime green if American & melon or jade green if Asian - for a Russian instrument ?

 

Here is my other find/buy today (what should i call that style - besides MCM?) - and I proudly add...I didn't buy any paintings!

 

Apparently it's аккордеон, which is just the letters from our alphabet transliterated into Cyrillic equivalents. -- I assume you meant the translation from English language to Russian language. Other languages use the Cyrillic alphabet, and they may or may not have a different word for "accordion."

 

is this one like yours

Yes i saw those (& a pair on 1st dibs) what us that shape?

 

I found this accordion on Amazon that looks like mine with a different color - so I guess i have a "3 button" accordion?

Journey - that's MidMod with a vengeance. WOOT!

I'd say apple jade green, but I'm a joolie. Green mother of toilet seat! Old instrument guys will know what that is; it's the pearlized plastic meant to look like mother of pearl and first used to make toilet seats.

 

Any Jewelry this is the same as yours? (found on amazon)

 

Well that's an image I'm not getting rid of soon!
