Estate Found Antique Early 20c Tycos Glass Cased Barometer For Restoration. This is a handsome estate found antique barometer from the Taylor Instruments Company of Rochester, New York circa 1920. The mahogany and beveled glass lid showcases the instrument inside. The pen stylus records the barometric pressure on the rotating paper scroll over the course of seven days. A wind-up clock movement inside of the scroll holder is responsible for the movement. Dimensions: 7 1/4 x 12 1/2 x 6 3/4 Condition: In overall good cosmetic condition consistent with age and use. As pictured, there are nicks and scratches to the mahogany framing for the case. The glass is all in tact. The barometer is in need of restoration particularly to the clockwork mechanism that turns the paper roll. The looses pieces are pictured. When the key is wound, the small adjacent cog does spin. Additionally, the inkwell and ink bottle are lost to the ages. Please examine the images.
