    Description

    Please have a look at all of my current listings.  They are part of my 50 plus years of collecting to be listed (as time permits) over the coming weeks and months.  My collection includes Antique items such as Scientific Instruments, Radios, Bottles, Barometers, Surveying Instruments, Prohibition (and Pre-Prohibition) Whiskey, Art, Books, etc.  I have fully packed storage boxes full of wonderful things that need to see the light of day once more.  I simply do not have the room anymore (just ask my wife).  It is really hard to part with my "treasures" but I find comfort knowing that they will be cared for by the new owners.  Let me know if you have any specific needs and I will try to list them.  ENJOY!!!
    Full and complete set of the Sikes' Hydrometer by J. J. Hicks of London England.  Everything is original and complete.  These sets are quite uncommon with two slide rues.  Both slide rules and thermometer are marked with makers name and are fully working as they should.  All of the weights are present and bear the same serial number.  The mahogany case is beautiful with original name plate on top and both working brass closure slides.  The interior velvet around the weights is complete and has vivid coloring (though dusty).  The interior silk lid lining tattered as seen in the photos.  Case measures roughly 10" long by 4.5" deep by 2.25" tall.  The photos say it all.
    Sold as is.  Return only if not as described and shown in photos.  No Overseas/International shipping at this time.  I am still fully employed and overseas shipping consumes too much time and can create issues.  Shipping quote for lower 48 states only as others will be more.  Many Thanks.
