Up for sale today is this Antique ES Ritchie 19th C Marine Ships Binnacle Lantern Lifeboat Compass. The compass is fluid filled and is working. The ES Ritchie & Sons compass is serial number 21583 and the latest patent date is 1878. The metal ring does look to have been painted black and it does make reading the dates a little hard. No leaks or cracks in the glass. The green metal case is also in very nice original condition as well as the beveled glass window. The compartment is intact with copper kero and drawer with extra wick. The reflector on the side of the door looks to be period and original with no issues. Overall this is a great pre 1900's nautical lifeboat compass. Measures 9" x 9.5" x 7".
