Mid-60s Display Barograph by Casella, London

This is a nice 1960s display barograph in a polished mahogany case by well known makers, Casella ltd. of London. The extract from Casella's trade catalogue best describes this, as with all barographs..... "The recording of barometric pressure is not only of interest to meteorologists. Knowledge of its changes helps most of us to make our local short range weather forecasts. Therefore, in many public and private places there is the need for a high quality attractive looking instrument which while being useful also acts as a focal point of interest. This instrument is designed to fulfil this need and is often found in sports clubs, country clubs, town halls, hotels and large stores. It is also ideal as a presentation gift. The case in which this movement is fitted is of highly polished mahogany hardwood and has a lift-off cover with bevelled glass on top and on all four sides. Below the flared skirt of the base is a drawer to hold spare charts". Weekly charts and a fresh bottle of recording ink supplied and a reprinted pamphlet describing operating instructions with guidance on interpreting chart recordings. 371mm wide x 236mm deep x 227mm high
