VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage black and white advertisement for "Messier" press button selectors. The image features a close-up of two robust, industrial-looking pieces of machinery with several buttons on the top surface. These devices are likely part of a larger mechanical or hydraulic system given their sturdy construction and the context provided by the text. The ad highlights that these selectors enable "4000 lb. to 1½ lb. " adjustments, suggesting they can handle significant weight variations with precision. It also mentions that these machines can be operated by "extremely light finger effort, " indicating ease of use despite their heavy-duty capabilities. In addition to technical details, there's an artistic touch: an eagle in flight is depicted in the upper left corner, symbolizing strength or freedom, which may metaphorically relate to the power and control offered by Messier equipment. Below this powerful imagery is further information about the product including its utility when implemented within bombsights (a reference to military applications), its size specifications ("each unit uses ¼ sq. inch high pink"), and contact information for British Messier Limited located in Cheltenham Road East, Gloucester—pointing towards its British manufacturing origin during what appears to be mid-20th century based on design elements typical for that era's advertising style.
