Original Compass
I bought this antique wooden compass case from Chris Gilgun about 20 years ago at the Eastern. It had the hand-tinted paper and glass inside, but was missing the needle. I sent it to the guy in New York state who used to make compasses (sorry, I don't remember his name right off), and he made a stylish needle for it. I've carried this compass on numerous hunts and treks over the years, and always enjoy using it, or just taking it out and admiring it.
