Got a pretty good deal on these, the first one is a sperry type 3 out of a post ww2 cessna so nothing crazy. The second is from a BD5 jet, technically one of the smallest jets in the world and featured in a James bond movie.
Snagged this one the other day for $40, decently spicy with a really interesting glow.
Picked this up today at an estate sale for $8! Richards and hartley glass pattern no 99 aka daisy and buttons with crossbars. I also snagged a cute little cabinet for my radium compasses for $20.
Boyfriend and I were doing some antiquing today, came across these 6 jars for $50. Now we have both seen the black versions before but has anyone seen the orange?
Was kind of bummed how this one showed up today, the side being split and the bottom looking like the sellers dog chewed on it.
So aside from the allergic reaction to the dog hair because of the blanket it was wrapped in, the bite marks on the bottom, and the split, I think I cleaned it up pretty well.
Bezard compass and a waltham lensatic field compass, thought you all might enjoy.
Not quite sure what this was, the tail being gone is kind of throwing me off. Neighbor said it was a deer I don't think so.
Cant say I was the one to think of this, but my friend did it with their hopalong Cassidy toothpick holder. I thought it was too cute not to get one as well.
Soo the boyfriend found a really good deal on this beauty and we really couldn't say no :3 go her working pretty good so far, I think with a good cleaning It shall work like a charm.
New one came in the mail today! Big ben futurua, made 1973-78, from what I can find only the big ben version is radium. Which further backs westclox stopping radium use in 1975, seeing the baby ben version was made in 1976-81.
It's been a while since I updated the collection, as for radon yes it's well within safe numbers. Still can't believe it was only going to be 16 clocks in total I would collect.
Got a few good deals this past week, the westclox spur is extremely clean. The trainer link from what I can find is a turn and bank indicator for ww2 flight training simulators. Then finally the telechron, when your boyfriend says he likes the numbers you get it :3
Mail day! Got this JAN-CW-IB22 radar spark gap tube. Seems to be pretty spicy.. into the military cabinet it goes!
