Vintage Springfield Weather Station Wall Plaque
This is a vintage vertical triple-dial weather station manufactured by Springfield. The piece is constructed from a solid wood frame, likely oak or walnut given the grain, with a dark honey-toned finish. It features three distinct square brass-toned instruments arranged vertically: a thermometer at the top (measuring 0 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit), a central aneroid barometer with weather indicators like 'Stormy', 'Changeable', and 'Fair', and a hygrometer at the bottom (measuring relative humidity from 0 to 100%). Each dial face is finished in a metallic gold tone with black numerals and features a distinctive decorative starburst or compass rose motif in the center. The wooden frame is accented by eight L-shaped and T-shaped brass brackets secured with flat-head screws, giving it a 'nautical' or 'campaign' style aesthetic common in the mid-to-late 20th century (circa 1960s-1970s). The overall condition appears used but fair; there is visible oxidation and patina on the brass-toned dial faces, particularly spotting on the bottom hygrometer. The brass corner accents show surface wear and tarnishing consistent with age. There are no obvious cracks in the glass covers, though the wood frame shows minor scuffs around the edges.
