Columbus Script dial
Sheila stated that she wanted to see a pic of the old English script Columbus dial that I got at National. One little edge chip at the 40, but I can live with that for $5.

Hey Again Tom,

Wow a very nice dial... especially for $5. Nice Columbus DS dials are hard to come by in this condition. For Sheila, here is another example of the old English script. But I paid a lot more than $5. Roll Eyes This one is mounted to a 23 jewel Columbus Railway King. This dial is a bit unique as it is for the Canadian market. Can you see how?

Hi Joe, That is a great dial. Wow! Mine faces a 17J Columbus King that I got a while back without a dial. Have been waiting for the right one to pop up.

Nice 24hr dial there, with hours instead of minutes outside the minute track.

Thanks Norman and yes you are correct. Columbus had a number of unique dials. I have another Canadian style that I'll picture and post tomorrow.
