1950s Green Bakelite Megger Circuit Testing Ohmmeter By Evershed & Vignoles

1950s Green Bakelite Megger Circuit Testing Ohmmeter By Evershed & Vignoles, London, UK under the Megger brand name.

I think this is the three-terminal model with two ranges, 0-3 ohms and 0-30 ohms. In good condition with a few surface scuffs and blemishes commensurate with age and use. It requires a battery, which is not included due to the difficulties in shipping.

This green bakelite Megger circuit testing ohmmeter also has its original beige coloured leather carry case, which has a broken strap. 

An amazing piece of vintage scientific testing equipment which would look fantastic displayed in the vintage office or man cave. Although it appears to be working, we are selling this as a collectible and display item only.
