That Continental Electronics logo is neat. Is it on a backing or in two pieces?

That's a lot of nice goodies you got, Pat! Hope you get time to bring them all back to live.

The Continental Electronics emblems are in two pieces, mounting via three pins for each--perfect for my front fender...

Me too. I've already gotten an operating/service manual for the HP 608As, have one coming for the HP 333A, and am on the lookout for ones for the HP 608D & E (or E & F; not in the picture because they were still in the Jeep at that point and I don't remember exactly which letter suffixes they were off the top of my head). Apparently the guy had a summer place up in NH, so he had two of some things like those particular boat anchors. He eventually consolidated to his CT home as he was getting too old to go up north with any regularity. From what I was told by his son (and confirmed by the 30 years worth of CQ and QSL magazines, along with all the gear) he was a very avid Ham, and had worked for all sorts of technical companies and organizations down through the years. He passed away about ten years ago and his widow just recently died, so the son was up from his home in Florida to clean things up and settle the estate. The ARRL got first dibs on things, followed by the vintage radio museum I volunteer at, and then I got to go through what was left. It's as dirty as it is because it's by and large been undisturbed in the basement and attic of his home from when he passed until now. His widow apparently sold some of his Ham gear around the time he died, and then the rest just sat. I wish I'd met him; from what he left behind he was a fascinating character!

I have one of those meggers, it is complete with a carrying case made from brass sheet. I used to have a 1923 model megger which is only a year or two after the patent, inside was a calibration sheet hand written in pencil and signed, it was not even labled megger but Evershed & Vignoles and the case was made of wood, I sold it recently.
i do however have this ohm meter by Evershed & Vignoles.
