Wonder if anyone else saw this on the web. At http://www.stanleylondon.com they are selling nice looking repoductions of original Stanley Sextants. They say that they are fully functional, but not intended for navigation. They sell pretty cheap compared to what you would think a brass sextant would sell for. I wonder if certain antique stores buy these sextants and sell them for inflated prices, leading people to think that they are original Stanley antique sextants that can be used for navigation, at inflated prices. --- Gordon ,,, (. .) +-----------------------ooO-(_)-Ooo----------------------+ | Gordon Talge WB6YKK e-mail: gtalge@pe.net | | Department of Mathematics QTH: Loma Linda, CA | | Notre Dame High School Lat.
