Description: Vintage English Geo. Salter Staffordshire Cast Iron Balance ScaleNeeds Minor PolishingREASONABLE Offers Would be ConsideredGreat Gift Idea! I. CONDITIONGood. Used. This is a vintage attic treasure. Has been loved and it has a history. • Item’s Background - Antique Collector's Estate Sale Item • Working Condition – Excellent. This item is fully functional and performs as originally intended. • Cosmetic Condition – Used. Shows well. Virtually no unusual wear, rust, or corrosion. But it also has some of the usual expectable vintage aging, considering its relative time period. (See pics.) On the plus side it's air of nostalgia is pretty much all there to take in, display, and enjoy. II. DESCRIPTIONManufacturer – George Salter & Co (est. 1760) West Bromwich, Staffordshire, England.• Mfg. Item Number –• Model Line - The Staffordshire Cast Iron Scales series • Age - Early post WWII (est.)• Original MSRP - Not known.• General Dimensions (LWH) - Scale - 11" x 5.5" x 4" Brass Pan - 8.0" x 6.75" x 2.5" Painted Iron Weights 1 oz 4 oz 8 oz 1 Lb• Item's Total Weight - 5.87 Lbs, before packing. Key Features:• Functionality - Old-fashioned, but still works perfectly• Practical Use - An eye-catching nostalgic curio display piece• Component Materials – Cast Iron mechanism and Weights, Brass Pan.• Easily Restorable - To near-original condition for most competent hobbyists, though not entirely unnecessary.• General Maintenance - This item's pan will eventually tarnish slightly. Every few years or so, I recommend a casual wipe-down using something like Tarn•X® or Turtle Wax Auto Finish Heavy Duty Wax Rubbing compound. (Note: When using Tarn•X, it is important to quench the de-tarnishing chemical reaction by wiping down the object with water and a dry towel within a few moments after application. Treated brass items will then stay bright and shiny-golden much longer by doing so.) III. SHIPPINGAll orders ship within 3 Business Days or Less of payment. (Usually less.
