No doubt it saw a great deal of action at the local grange back  in the day. This is an area rich in western history. The Willamette Valley is the end of the OregonTrail. I bought this accordion on a farm north of Junction City, OR, just  off HWY 99W. It is in its original carrying case, which as ytou can see, is still in pretty good condition. The interior of the case is quite good. There is something loose inside the instrument, from what I am told, it is most likley a reed. It still makes "noise" as I am about as musically talented as a stone...I couldn't carry a tune if you picked it up and handed it to me... Overall, it seems to be in fairly good condition, as in  all the keys move, as do all the buttons and levers, et al. The shoulder straps show quite a bit of wear...too many polka nights at the grange... I am tempted to keep it, but I think it should end up in a "real" collection, not just hangin' on my wall...
