I recently found these full page adverts from old trade journals.
I rec
ently purchased this 1912 advert that was printed in the Practical Engineer journal.
Another ebay acquisition. This is a celluloid bridge counter. It would have been handed out at expositions and trade shows. I don't know a thing about playing bridge, so maybe someone can fill me in about this one.
I recently picked up this nice chrome plated pressure gage.
Another recent aquasition, a water gage. It's imossible to date this one as there is no serial number on the gage face. I've included a catalog page from 1928 for information about the gages purpose.
Another 14" diameter pressure gage recently acquired. I can't be positive, but I'm estimating it's from the mid 1930s.
