Not really what I intended to put there, but close enough

That image came from the Compleat Surveyor website, which is owned by Russ Uzes, who is the son of the late Bud Uzes, who wrote “Chaining the Lands.” http://www.mdshs.org/In_memorial/Bud_Uzes_Bio.htm

There is a link to email Russ here:

He is very knowledgeable of antique surveying equipment (almost anything old related to surveying) and a really nice guy. I have purchased a few things from him directly over a cup of coffee over the years.

I have a Buff & Berger No.1B s/n 2586. I think from right around the time Buff & Buff took over in 1898?  If anyone has further info, intreasted in learning more about it.
