Here is a Large Bomber / Transport aircraft size RAAF Horizon Gyroscope Gauge.
It still works fine , locks and unlocks , Even though its missing the front cover glass.
Its an interesting piece , Has the Sperry markings on the Face dial , and the made under licence by AWA plate on the rear .
Stores No G6A-3182 , Serial No AWA / 127 , Part No 643720- R
AWA stands for Amalgamated Wireless (Australia ) , Anyone over 50 will know the AWA brand well .
Cheers Rick

Very nice addition Rick,
I used to work at an Aircraft Instrument overhaul shop,(Tiger Aviation Inc.)
The most meaningful to me was overhauling a DG (Directional Gyro) for the CAF's B-17.
It had a huge Gyro Gimbal inside.
