I picked up an Ashton wheel press recording gage on ebay. It needs a couple of parts but I think I can find them. 70 pounds!

I recently picked up an Ashton Illuminated pressure gage, 14" diameter. It's missing the lighting fixture but looks like it might be an easy fix.

Another ebay acquisition. This is a celluloid bridge counter. It would have been handed out at expositions and trade shows. I don't know a thing about playing bridge, so maybe someone can fill me in about this one.
