Below, we offer some information to assist those who may be looking to sell their accordion. Appraising an accordion's value is not a straightforward process, because they generally do not have "Blue Book values" like many other instruments (such as guitars) do. When it comes down to placing a value on an older accordion, the brand name often doesn't mean a whole lot anyway, except in a handful of cases. There are also quite a lot of these nameless instruments floating around out there, and there is no way to identify which company originally made them. Some accordions were even manufactured without brand names, so that a retail shop could add their own name later when they offered it for sale.

Your accordion may even have a serial number, but in most cases there are no records for tracking these numbers. Though a handful of them are still in operation, most stopped manufacturing decades ago, and there is little historical information available about these companies. In the "Golden Age" of accordion manufacturing in Italy (the mid 1900s), there were literally hundreds of accordion companies and brand names making instruments.
