FS: Jackie Boyce Stitched Bellows

Post by JR »

Jackie Boyce bellows–stitched and look amazing. Perfect if you want that old style or have a flat set. Not many makers doing this kind of work anymore due to the intense amount of labour involved, and Jackie himself has just recently retired. £450.

Takes a standard hose which will be included in the sale. Airtight and pumping well. Feel free to ask questions. Thanks.

The arm strap is stitched into the clappers, as was the style with the older makers.
