***********************************
NOTE: I got this from an ESTATE SALE So I don't know that much about it. just what you see in the pictures. everything seems to be working great.But I can't guarantee it. that's why I'm selling it: (AS-IS) The family said they're daddy worked in Antarctica for the Navy back in the late 1960's.
Nice antique b...rass transit by BRANDIS & SONS. INC looks to be in original wooden case. Serial/Model number on inside glass #6285.????
no problems with any of the working components that i can see. all the glass bubbles are intact. Comes with the original small tools & a piece include in the images. The case strap looks to have been broken on the left side for some time. Looks like Finger jointed wooden case is original with a paper ripped tag on top.
see pictures.
Item is in really good condition and all parts same to move freely and lock accordingly when tightened down. Screws into sliding wooden panel in the bottom of the case that has a brass mount to receive the transit. A Brass Yale lock but SORRY no key. Very nice overall. Weighs approx 27lb before being boxed. Estimated shipping weight is 30 lbs. Case measures 15" x 11" x 10".
