Surveyors Transit $40 – Craigslist ;^)
Would you buy it? I saw this add on craigslist yesterday and I dialed the number as fast as possible. (Now it’s sitting in my garage waiting for a little TLC.) I have always wanted an old instrument like this so condition or brand didn’t really matter to me and in fact I didn’t even ask. Less is more I figured. Gentlemen said it worked when he put it back in the case and he used it a few times. When I got it it home I took a quick look since I didn’t have much time, and saw it was an old A. Lietz Co.:-)

I will post actual photos and more info later tonight.
Cheers.

.PS. Thanks to Grant for planting a bug in my head about looking for some old equipment.
