MAKER: CHARLES BAKER COMPANY

MODEL: 'Nelson No. 2'

c. 1895 & C. 1899

SIGNED:'C. BAKER, 244, HIGH HOLBORN, LONDON'

SERIAL NUMBER: none

1899 fine focus

The fine focus knob also changed. It is much thicker on the 1899 model. The 1899 knob had additional calibrations between the numbers, whereas the 1895 model did not. In addition there is a fine focus cursor on the 1895 version, but none on the 1899 example. One would suppose the edge of the limb could be used as a cursor.
