I've been asked to sell a major collection from Central Maine.  There are more than 50 steam gauges, over 30 flyball governors - some quite large, steam toys, scientific items and lots of brass.  These are all fresh to the market, direct from the garage, shed and attic.  Check my listings often or contact me if you have a specific need.   OLD TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATES PRESENTS I have two of these very rare FRANKLIN VALVELESS ENG. CO. flyball governors.  This auction is for a 1 1/4", later I will list a 1 1/2". This one stands 18" tall, about 13" wide and weighs 38 pounds.  This one features the small name tag seen in the second photo.  Operation is moveable, but stiff from old grease, old barn dirt and light surface rust.  Gears mesh cleanly and there are no broken teeth.  I am not able to move the balls with moderate hand pressure, I suspect that a good cleaning will resolve that issue.  Balls, fulcrums and pivots are all brass/bronze.  Valve is marked 1 1/4" E TYPE and G3805.  Flywheel is 6" by 1 3/8".  Overall, very heavily built. Will be shipped on a pallet to protect it in transit.  Buyer pays only actual cost for pallet (est. $50) packing, insurance and shipping. Offered With NO RESERVE ! Be Sure To Take A Look At My Other Steam, Brass, Early Mechanical & Various Oddities SHIPPING:  Some items do not include a shipping price, as the things I sell are often heavy and/or odd-shaped and the cost of packing, insurance and shipping will depend on the winner's location and item value.  When I do not list a shipping cost, eBay calls this "FREIGHT SHIPPING".  That is not correct as most items will be shipped by UPS or the Post Office.  I'm happy to answer your questions about shipping estimates, but please DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE.  My packing store closes Saturday at 12 noon and is closed on Sunday. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Cost for international packing, insurance and shipping also depends on weight, shape, size, value and the destination country.  Please contact me through eBay for an estimate but PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE.
