1920s Northeast Electric Co. Speedometer #3851 


Details

I happened on several different old speedometer's where they were from an old closed up repair shop.  I don't know a ton about these so hoping some polite help comes my way if my research is wrong.

This is referred to as a Dodge Brothers type speedometer. The dial appears to turn freely. As can see this needs a good cleaning. I wiped the glass face which does show some minor scratches.
 The date I show in the title are a guesstimate. I read where this may be early 1930s? The reader of this will definitely know for sure. :)

Measures approx. 3.75" for the beveled face, 4.5" with the extension. and approx. 3" deep without housing.

There is a serial number on the back shows 214760 with the Type No. 3851 above that.  Really neat graphic of wings and REO on the front.

Great display as garage art, or put in your classic or hot rod or custom. I believe these are used in early Motorcycles as well.

Please be sure to have your questions answered prior to making your purchase. Sold as-is. I will ensure your order is packaged very  carefully for you.

 Thanks for looking.
