Here is an
ANTIQUE c.EARLY-19THC TRAVELER'S POCKET DIPTYCH SUNDIAL AND COMPASS
.
This fruitwood and paper folding sundial-compass is European (likely Bavaria made) and made for the American and English market. Looks like the maker's name
"F.N."
on the compass face. Lovely hand-colored paper faces.
The compass is in working condition. It is missing the string. Original old patina to surfaces. The exterior with worn paper list of cities in America, England, France and other countries with their corresponding latitudes. Some of these graphics are worn away. I assume it originally had a small nail on the notched end for locking swing latch in an upright position, but the diptych will stay up on its own without it. Reasonable starting price.
Will pack with care for buyer.
INSURANCE INCLUDED in the shipping total.

tate sales tax may apply depending on your state's ebay new tax collection guidelines.
