Good Day
I picked up this Willard Batteries Thermometer and I have no information about it. It is in very good shape but I cannot find any maker marks. I know nothing about old thermometers and I want to know if this is a good one and its value. Are the round thermometers collected like the mercury type?
Thanks for any help.
Looking for Canadian Imperial and Canadian North Star.

I would expect to see a $250-350 price tag on it @ a petro show.

In antique shops I see round thermometers go from $150 to $300. There are some that are more desireable than others.

Without some graphics on it, I think $100 to $150

My error...I was thinking of clocks.....sorry. I think the $100 to $150 is a better average.

i think someone selling that thermometer at one of the gas shows would have a tough time getting more than $200 out of it. being a sealed thermometer is a plus, but i think the lack of graphics puts it in the 150-200 range
see me at Mason Dixon Gas, Spring Carlisle M114-115, and Hershey C4E-35.
