<p>[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 215182, member: 1331"]Got a bunch of what I think are mid century barometers recently and I'm having trouble deciding if they are Swedish, Danish or Norwegian. I suspect the manufacturer may be German and a dial fitted to suit the end user. One is a "Fisher" which I think is a German manufacturer, one has a star mark impressed on the back that I can't identify and the other is unmarked.</p><p>Tried using google translate for "Foranderligt" and without the "T" on the end it thought it was either Swedish/Danish/Norwegian. Put the "T" on the end and it spat the dummy.</p><p>Any language experts out there???</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit - I have highlighted the mark in black</p><p>Cheers</p><p>Stephen</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]63455[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]63456[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]63457[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]63458[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
