VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an advertisement for a Smiths Altimeter, Type A. 4. SS. , featuring the instrument prominently at the center of the image. The altimeter has a circular black face with white and red numerals indicating height in thousands and hundreds of feet, respectively. It includes two hands: one for measuring the current altitude and another (red) to record maximum altitude reached. Above the altimeter, there's a logo with wings on either side that reads "SMITHS" signifying it as a product of S. Smith & Sons (M. A. ) Ltd. , known for manufacturing precision instruments. Below the altimeter is descriptive text that outlines its features: - High-quality construction - Patent device for compensating lag - Calibration available in feet or meters - Special locking device to enable recording maximum height obtained during use Additional specifications include: - Overall diameter: 4½ inches - Dial diameter: 3⅜ inches - Weight: 14½ oz. The address provided at the bottom indicates that this company was located in Cricklewood Works, London, N. W. 2. , which suggests this image may be from an older document due to how addresses were formatted historically. Overall, this caption describes an aviation instrument designed for durability and accuracy used by pilots to determine their aircraft's altitude above sea level.
