VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for the Pioneer Straightway Compass, featuring illustrations of the compass from different angles and highlighting its various features. The ad emphasizes that this new product offers three distinct advantages: it has practically no period after adjusting to ensure correct readings with almost no overshooting or oscillation; it maintains accurate direction thanks to gyroscopically keeping the dial fixed on the desired heading; and it provides an easy way to check for correctness of heading at a glance. The compass can be mounted in both vertical and horizontal orientations as shown by two illustrated examples in the ad. It boasts precision similar to other Pioneer instruments, claims immunity to sudden or extreme changes in altitude or temperature, and touts a superior performance due to reducing magnetic drag effects. The bottom part of the image includes text promoting additional features such as demagnetizing components, jewel-bearing pivot points, compensation control linked with an Interconnection Recorder-Compass store, and candle-powered illumination. Lastly, there's contact information provided for Pioneer Instrument Company located on Lexington Avenue in Brooklyn New York.
