Description
Sikes’ Hydrometer J Hutchison Belfast.
Sikes’ Hydrometer J Hutchison Belfast is used to ascertain the strength of Spirits at Temperatures ranging from 30 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Given its age, this boxed Sike’s Hydrometer with an ivory plaque on the front entitled J Hutchison is in good condition. It is missing 2 small brass weights out of 10. It also contains the hydrometer, ruler, and thermometer with an ivory backplate.
The book of ‘Tables to be used with Sikes’ Hydrometer’ is dated 1923 and has seen better days but it is all there, bound by threads! It was issued under the authority of Commissioners of H.M. Customs and Excise. This pocket edition is priced 1 shilling and 6d net. This suggests it would be sold separately to the tools of the trade.
Another Made in Belfast Item.
