Queen & Co. Phila. German Silver Protractor   This is a very nice draftsman, surveyor or map makers piece by the renowned early maker from Philadelphia Pa.  There is some mild corrosion at the screws from use of dissimilar metals, and some light tarnish, but I believe that this would clean if you wanted to.    The Makers name and all of the scales are nice and easily readable.  Unusual, and nice!    Click for Pic         Click for Pic
