Early Masonic Motometer
This beautiful brass item was called a motometer when Brother Steve Kapp bought it on eBay. It was made by Boyce Motometer Co. and was used on a Chandler automobile. The back side has a glass tube where the driver could see if his car was over heating. it is 7 inches high and 8 inches wide. This piece alone, without the Square and Compasses emblem, is worth a good bit, but with the emblem on it of course its worth even more. It is very well made and a treasured piece in Steve's collection. A special "Thanks" to Brother Steve Kapp (kalbo on Ebay) for submitting the pictures of his wonderful motometer. Steve is a Master Mason and a Masonic Collector who is affiliated with the below listed Masonic bodies: Leonard Wood Lodge No.
