Hi Ric, Hi fellow TIGHARs
Greetings from Warsaw, Poland ! Have just joined so apologies in advance if this post is in the wrong place.
Have been fascinated by the Niku hypothesis for a while now and having had some time on my hands over the weekend decided to take a look at the whole sextant piece. Maybe our search filters work a little better over here or maybe being mildly autistic helps
but I may have found an additional
13 sextants online, 11 with USNO numbers and 8 with
both USNO and Makers Number.
Have prepared a detailed Table using the same headings as the Ameliapedia Sextant Table and have tried very hard to find a way to attach a screenshot with details or a file but can't seem to figure that out. Table has links to the relevant websites. Anyone able to help me out with how to share this ?
In the meantime, I guess the really good stuff is as follows in the following format: Maker / Maker Number / USNO Number, - = Unknown, K&E = Keufel & Esser, B&B = Buff & Buff, B= Brandis
- / - /
33K&E /
470 /
107K&E /
14279 /
330K&E / - /
350K&E / - /
438B&B /
13024 (Box),
13135 (Sextant) /
1365B&B /
13029 (or
13020) /

3126 (either or, Listing Unclear)

37305 /
3277B /
2551 (or
2561) /
4244K&E /
3884 (Crossed Out) and replaced with
8737 /
5225B&B / - / - Only partly visible
B /
5996 on Box. Crossed out and replaced with
6006 / -
Haven't tried to analyse these, will leave that to others far more qualified.
Anyway, hope useful. Will post full details including links as soon as someone lets me know how. That being said I'm just leaving for the airport for a flight to Moscow but have tomorrow morning free so would try to do then.
Hope useful and Happy Hunting.
Best
Paul
