For your consideration is this original antique Pickering fly ball steam engine governor. This was obtained from a large farm estate, I have not cleaned this, its truly farm fresh. The governor is marked Pickering Governor Co Portland, Conn on one side, and the other is marked Shaft Rev 430. The number 406775B follows. It is also marked Pat Oct 15 07. The gears seem to turn smoothly despite some grime and surface corrosion. If you need a better picture or close up of a part, please ask. It seems to be in very solid condition but will obviously need some oiling/work if you want to use this again. It measures about 20.5″ from top to bottom, and the base has about a 5.5″ diameter. The three flyballs are about 2.5 in diameter each. If you need other measurements, please ask. A great governor to fix up and put to use again. Will sell with no reserve.
