Greetings,
My name is Jason Denman a few years ago I was going through my Grandmothers property after her death and found an interesting item. I so far have had no luck finding information about it. Her husband was a WWII veteran I do not know if he brought it back from overseas or found it at an auction of some sort (he was always going to actions). I would like any assistance that you would be able to offer and I have attached pictures of the item. Perhaps you could point me in the right direction on how to obtain information. Thanks in advance for your help.

There was or is a German company name Galotta that made accordions so you could check there cause that looks to me to maybe be an accordion.
Thanks, will look into that.
