New Find

on a steam header in a commercial building. After several hours of removing paint, this nice looking gage emerged!
It is 11" across at the outside. Now I need to get a new glass cut for it.

    Dumb Question

    Why the "extra" space between 0 and 1 psi?

    If there's actually steam being produced is that first heavy line after zero the "true" zero for steam?

    Forgot to say--nice save from inconsiderate spray paint. Any decent glass company can cut a circle and finish the edges.

    I'm not sure..

    what the extra space is for? I did find some info on Ashton Valve Co. (the manufacturer)and can tell by the serial # that it was made in 1916!

    I'll keep looking.
