Your accordion may even have a serial number, but in most cases there are no records for tracking these numbers. 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. There are also quite a lot of these nameless instruments floating around out there,.
- I've come across an old Hohner Corona II three-row button accordion in D-A-G. I'm interested in finding out more about it - where are the serial numbers placed on these instruments? I've looked on the outside and also inside the bellows area. The outside has a 'Made in Germany' stamp under the keyboard, but that's all I can find.
- They are directly below the leftmost register switch. These keys still make the appropriate noise when they press properly. The vents are not damaged and produce clear notes. The serial number on the accordion is 4452. Terms We are an honest seller and do our best to provide the most accurate information in all auctions.
Since 1857, HOHNER produces musical instruments like harmonicas, accordions, melodicas, recorders, guitars and ukuleles of the highest quality.
The founder of the Hohner company is Matthias Hohner (1833 – 1902).
The German Harmonica and Accordion Museum in Trossingen, which houses the famous HOHNER collection, is simply unique and tells the HOHNER history like no one else. More than twenty five thousand different harmonicas and accordions, lovingly preserved by curator Martin Häffner, make up the largest single collection in the world. But the museum doesn‘t only exhibit musical instruments, it also shows rare films, recordings, sales displays, advertising posters, and much more. The exciting story of Matthias HOHNER, his rise to fortune and the assimilation of his numerous competitors is all documented in the main museum building. Special exhibitions are shown on the new premises a short distance away in Bau V, a huge former factory building on the original HOHNER factory site.

The following information was kindly made available to me by Bridgitte Conrad of HohnerMusikinstrumente.(I contacted her at bconrad@hohner.de).She informed me that the company had little or no information regarding their manufacture of saxophones but she did send me an article on the subject (in German).I have been able to extract some information from the article but have insufficient knowledge of German to be able to decipher it completely, or to identify the source.So far the table of serial numbers seems to check out satisfactorily.
The results together with some other research are summarized below.Please feel free to use whatever information you need for your site.
Hohner 'President'Saxophones
Hohner (1857–2007), well known for the manufacture of accordions and harmonicas, manufactured in Trossingen from 1949 to 1972 a range of Hohner 'President' badged alto and tenor saxophones under the direction of Max Keilwerth (1898-1968).Other sources set the period of manufacture as 1948 to 1967; however the table below suggests that production in some form or other continued well after Max Kielwerth's demise.
Much of the early data regarding the Keilwerth brothers Max and Julius (Julius being the elder of the two) is disjointed.Suffice it to say that apart from an indication that Max learnt his early skills within some form of local or ‘cottage' industry, and subsequently joined at least Franz Than Graslitz/Sudetenland, F.X. HüllerGraslitzer and Amati as well as the Keilwerthcompanie/s.
It appears that Julius, his son Joseph and grandson Gerhart didn't hold formal craftsmanship papers (Meisterbrief)as didMax.Max Kielwerth commenced at Hohner some time in the 1940's however there are no records of the production for the factory and the information below is a compilation from various sources; the data supplied by Bridgitte Conrad being main source.
A common feature of the Hohners is the Patented ‘Double Socket' and knurled screw for attachment of the neck.
