A vintage 1880's - 1900 (+ -) ' MOUNTAIN TRANSIT '.
This instrument is made by ' J.C.
SALA - SAN FRANCISCO'. 12 inches
high to the top of the circle - telescope is 7 3/4
inches. Nicely furnished with the original
adjustable leg oak tripod; oak tripod thread cover
(chipped - see photo); adjusting screwdriver; magnifyer;
mahogony case; brass sun shade and plumb bob.
Noting the loss of one of the two white venier
cover/shade on one side of the horizontal plate.
Some losses / deterioration to the original lacquer and
the crosshairs are gone. Otherwise a very nice
instrument - needle lock works, telescope takes a good
focus via rack and pinion (optics are a bit
dusty). Another nice feature is the matching
numbers on the instrument and tripod / thread
cover. Case has a two maker labels still
attached inside. A desireable addition to any
scentific or surveying collection. Display
ready. --- Email
