    The photo in H.O. 216 is of an instument to be used in the antarctic as it rotates counterclockwise and "S"  on the azimuth scale is aligned with "Mid Night."

    Robert,
          
    I assume that you are talking about about the Zeiss Ikon A.-G. Goerz-Werk
    "Sonnenkompass" It is described in the German Patent Nr. 474100 (issued
    26.3.1929). If you do not have access to the patent I can send you a scan
    off list.
