Large Antique Vintage T. Wheeler Military Brass Aneroid Barometer In Leather Case
A very nice example of an early 20th Century barometer in its original leather carrying case. The barometer itself is cased in brass with glass covering the face. The white face has a traditional barometer dial from 25" to 31" and a black arrow pointer which reads the pressure. A moveable marker can be adjusted from turning the outer rim. The face is signed with the maker's details and serial number Compensated. The date on the face has been changed the last time it was serviced and it comes with another original service paper from April 1938. On the reverse of the barometer is the military'Crow's Foot' which indicates that this was a military issue instrument. The barometer comes with its original brown stitched leather carrying case with strap and red velvet lined interior. The case has some signs of age and small scuffs but nothing detrimental. It is in good condition for its age.

The glass is clean and has no major surface scratches. The face is clean and bright with no damages. The brass case has been lightly polished to retain its natural aged patina and displays very nicely.

There are some minor surface scratches on the reverse of the case but nothing detrimental. It seems to be in working order and has been running well for some weeks now.

I've done'the bag test' and the pointer certainly moves as it should and it appears to be giving good readings. Diameter : 4 3/4 / 12cm.
