Vintage Lot of Drafting Tools- Bow Compass-(6) Made in Germany & The U.S.A.:
$35.00

This sale is for a collection of 6 different vintage Bow-Compasses. They have been in the family since new. They are all in the one box that is shown in the photos. I\'m not sure if the unmarked (#1) large silvertone one is the original from this box.(It has no markings) I am not sure what type ofmetal this is, a magnet only sticks to thecircle part at thetop and the screw parts on the bottom. #2- It has rust and the bar on the bottom is broke but still attached and says what looks like K & E Co.-Germany on the dial on the side and a magnet sticks to it. #3- It has a patina and it marked K & E Co-Germany as well on the side dial and a magnet sticks to it. #4- It is 2nd largest of all of them and appears to be brass. (it has some nice weight to it) a magnet sticks to the little screws but no where else. It has the initials DRP up near the top on one side and Srlanger- Germany on the arms near the top. #5- It appear to be brass as well, a magnet sticks the screws. It has a swivel head and reads on the side Keuffel & Esser Co. N.Y., Germany. And #6 is not a compass, but I am not sure what it is called and it isunsigned ,. The screw tightens to holdsomething for drafting. All thecompass still have lead in them. Quite a unique collection. The box says Super De Luxe Bow-Compass No. 280. The Morilla Company, Inc. New York. Made in the U.S.A. (Like I stated I am not sure if any of these is the one that came in this box.
