Very nice condition with plenty of age to it, a pre-electric and electronic item upon which travelers depended for centuries. Full measurements are noted on the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good to excellent condition for age and type. A side bracket braces it open, folds and latch closure holds it compact and closed for pocket or backpack lightweight carry. The compass has a glass cover, and has no damage. A printed paper inside lid to instruct. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiques \u0026 Uncommon Treasure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48765644275966,"sku":"826sundial","price":445.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0298\/3392\/0556\/files\/826sundial.jpg?v=1787516255","url":"https:\/\/antiques-uncommon-treasure.com\/ja\/products\/antique-19th-century-wood-cased-navigational-compass-and-sun-dial-perpetual-calendar","provider":"Antiques \u0026 Uncommon Treasure","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
