Large Advertising Thermometer for J. H. Bayliss Pty Ltd, Mildura, House & Land Agents, Motor Garage, Cycle Sales & Sevice. (Victoria). Miscellaneous. Advertising. Large wooden advertising thermometer. About 520 mm high. 1930s
Very Good. (N/A). Some wear around the mounting hole at the top. Paint has split in several lines but remains good. Some minor flaking to the paint in places. Directions label to the rear is mostly missing. Some knocks and a small split or two. Solid example of this early thermometer, this company advertised between 1921 and 1949, may have been around for longer of course but this piece would date to the middle region in the 1930s at a guess. Currently the thermometer says 74 degrees F. This converts to 23 degrees which is exactly what my current thermometer is telling me, so this still works. Estimate: $150-200
