Vintage WW2 T.G. Co. Ltd. field compass. T.G. Co. Ltd was the abbreviation used by The Gramophone Company. This firm merged with Columbia Graphophone Co. and His Master's Voice in 1931 to become EMI (Electrical & Musical Industries) who continued to use “The Gramophone Co.” trademark for various items, changing it for the War contracts to just T. G. Co. Ltd. F. Barker & Son apparently built these compasses since they all carry the B prefix to the serial number. T. G. Co. disappeared as soon as WW2 finished. This company name was probably used to keep secret the manufacturer's real identity. The letter 'B' in the serial number means that this compass was in reality produced by F. BARKER. The compass for sale is still in good working condition, and is numbered B153086. Nice item for the militaria enthusiast.
