Hi, I've been holding onto my great uncle's Hohner Marchesa for about 10 years. It has been through multiple moves with me, and there is no indication I will ever learn to play it. I'm trying to find out how to price it fairly. Online research has been murky. It's a 120 bass model that looks exactly like this one: https://reverb.com/au/item/1219967-vintage-hohner-marchesa-accordion-41-120-black-gold-made-in-germany
...except there's some blue-ish oxidation (?) on the metal edges of the bellows, and also the hinges have rusted off of the case.
Everything else seems (to this non-accordion player) in good condition. I'm going to take it to an accordion guy in town, but I was hoping to get some suggestion of what to look for or ask first, and also some feedback to see if what he tells me sounds legit.
I would be greatful for any insight or suggestions!
