Beautiful set of late eighteenth or early nineteenth set of drawing instruments. The Sector is marked'Gilkerson Tower Hill.
There is plenty of information about Gilkersons business to be found online. I assume the rest of the set is also made by Gilkerson except the rule.
Which is slightly later in date and marked'Stanley Great Turnstile Holborn London. The rule is slightly chipped on two corners and fits very! The sharkskin box is in unusually fine external condition (no major marks, wear or scratches). It is seven inches / 18cm in length.
