This is a Thos. Walker & Son Ltd Birmingham electric ship's log used to measure distance on the open sea. The electric log was at the helm and was connected to the mechanical log at the stern of the ship. It measures 10" tall and is 7" in diameter at the base. It is very heavy duty and is made of brass and metal. Some of the brass coating is worn but the log is in very nice condition.
