Sunderland, Hull & Glasgow, the trunk with mercury thermometer, the case inlaid with mother of pearl and brass floral motifs over a swan, lacking mounting bracket, 92 cm.
The mercury tube has slipped downwards in the case, but looks complete?
The case and the register plates are very dirty and in need of cleaning.
There is no visible damage or repairs, showing only age related wear & tear.
