    Description:
    This sale is for the Thomas Edison's  Edison System Ampere Meter pictured. This Edison System ampere meter is a rare  and important piece of Electrical history. The condition of this large and  unusual Edison amp meter is exceptional. The scale  reads up to 264 amps, off the scale, indicating this meter was  used with a  huge dynamo or motor.
    This Edison meter measures approx. 10" across  and 16" tall. The back of the case is cast iron. The etched glass face is  flawless. The previous owner made a copy of the paper scale  to cover the original scale to help preserve it. The original paper  scale is behind the copy on the face in the pics. It is in nice  condition.  The interior workings look like new.
    The wooden case is original finish and in fine condition.  The wooden case is stamped in two places  with Elec. Eng. Dept. L.S.J.U. which is Stanford University in Palo Alto CA.
    A super nice and rare piece of American Electrical History that will display well and be a great addition to the old office,  electrical, scientific or related collection! Nice!!
