Vintage Bakelite Ship’s Course Indicator Wooden Box

This is a vintage Bakelite ship’s course indicator wooden box. Traditionally, these boxes were mounted on the bridge in clear view of the helmsman, constantly updated with the ship’s desired bearing, so anyone taking the helm would know the correct course to steer.

The box is crafted from wood and features Bakelite accents on the top of the knobs. It has three knobs: two labeled 0-9 and one labeled 0-3. The box is in good condition.

This vintage Bakelite ship’s course indicator wooden box would look great on a coffee table or displayed on a shelf with other nautical items.
