    Hey all,
    This is a “Farm Fresh” 1919 Gurley Transit surveying scope. It is in Remarkable condition and I am proud to have it in my collection. I bought it at a storage auction. It was sitting just inside the door to the right. I immediately stood on top of it to hide it from other bidders. They didn’t know what it was anyway. The rest of the unit wasn’t bad either. 2 Job boxes, New Duct work, Scuba Diving equipment among other things. $650 for it all. Gotta love that. The TV exposure is quickly putting those days to an end though. Hopefully the fad will blow over and I can get back to doing what I love affordably, Pickin’.
    P.S. Hello Mike & Frank! I’m a HUGE FAN! I’m currently talking with your web designer about constructing my web site. Thanks for the Link. Super Stoked!

      Hey thanks codydogg. It's nice to know there are still treasures to be discovered at auctions. I sure hope it lasts.
