NAUTICAL INSTRUMENTS

 

 

A small vintage portable yacht or boat compass gimballed in a fine mahogany case. The compass card is just 2 inch diameter, has all the cardinal points and the 360 scale around the edge. “North” is indicated by the trademark for Wilcox, Crittenden & Co, Middletown, USA. The underside of the compass bowl is embossed with “MADE IN USA”. This liquid filled compass is in good working order and makes a fine display.
