Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:18182 | Brand: Ashcroft Manufacturing Co |
| Country/Region of Manufacture: United States | Modified Item: No |
You're bidding on a cool, vintage-to-antique brass pressure gauge - 5" diameter and 1 1/2" thick - manufactured by the Ashcroft Manufacturing Co., New York for the Automatic Sprinkler Corp. of America of Cleveland, OH. Indicated on the face as a Water Sprinkler gauge, "Non-Freezing". Clean glass and steel face with nice marking & branding, and decorative black metallic needle. Note some pitting, rust & wear on the casing, but the brass border around the glass remains nice - I have left i...t with its aged patina, but should polish up nice if you want to do that. There's a "1929" mark on the face that I suspect might be a year of manufacture.
