Vintage Cornell-Wigman-Searl Co. Pressure Gauge

This item is a vintage circular pressure gauge, likely manufactured by Cornell-Wigman-Searl Co. of Lincoln, NEBR. The gauge features a brass or bronze casing that exhibits significant patina and some surface irregularities, consistent with age and use. Its face is cream or off-white with black numerical markings ranging from 0 to 100, and a linear scale with smaller increments. The numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 are clearly visible. A single black needle with a small circular counterweight indicates the reading. The manufacturer's name, 'CORNELL-WIGMAN-SEARL CO.' is printed in an arc across the center-right of the dial, while 'LINCOLN, NEBR.' is printed below it. To the left, there's a small crest-like logo and what appears to be a model or patent number, 'NO 00142'. The transparent cover, presumably glass, appears intact but shows some dust or minor scuffs. The metal bezel surrounding the glass is slightly worn and darkened. The overall condition suggests that it was a working instrument, possibly from an industrial or automotive application, and has now acquired a decorative, antique aesthetic. The craftsmanship indicates a functional, durable design typical of early to mid-20th-century industrial instrumentation.
