Antique 1920's? E S Ritchie & Sons Boston New York Maritime Ships Compass
Old ship compass by ES Ritchie and Sons. Boston. The compass is also marked New York but that is probably where it was sold. May be from the 1920's but that is just a guess. The serial number is 81647. Tried to find a serial number/date chart on the net but could not come up with one. The compass pivots on its brass or bronze gimbal. The hardwood box has wear to the old finish but is generally in good condition and displays well. I believe it to be original to the compass. The little chrome light above the compass has corrosion as would be expected. The compass itself has a faded dial, some flaky paint coming off of the bottom and I don't see any fluid in it although it does seem to work. Measures about 8 3/8" X 8 3/8" over all and the compass itself is about a 6" diameter. Pictures will be the best description so please ... moreview all the ones below. Thanks! Thank you for viewing.
