Very Rare HOHMANN & MAURER Steam Gauge, Portland, ME
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:8452935 |
Over the next few weeks I will be listing many early (mid/late 1800s) and rare steam gauges from an advancedprivate collection. Some are diaphragm gauges and unless noted otherwise, all respond to air pressure, although I can not attest to their accuracy. Check back often to see great pieces.
Made by HOHMANN & MAURER MFG CO, ROCHESTER, NY for the R. O. CONANT Co. of Portland ME. It is a sweep gauge, ...rather than a clock face, and has a 0-30 psi scale. It has a 3 1/2" face, brass bezel and iron body. Curiously there is only one screw next to the 1/4" shank to hold the mechanism. Probably due to the sweep configuration.
This is the only Hohmann & Maurer gauge I have ever found.

QUESTIONS: Feel free to contact me via eBay messages, thanks.
SHIPPING: Some items do not include a shipping price, as the things I sell are often heavy and/or odd-shaped and the cost of packing, insurance and shipping will depend on the winner's location and the item's value. When I do not list a shipping cost, eBay calls this "FREIGHT SHIPPING". That is not correct as most items will be shipped by Fed Ex, UPS or the Post Office. I'm happy to answer your questions about shipping estimates, but please DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. My packing store closes Saturday at 12 noon and is closed on Sunday.INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Cost for international packing, insurance and shipping also depends on weight, shape, size, value and the destination country. Please contact me through eBay for an estimate but PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE.
