Hi people, I just received my Pifco universal prüfer. It was a long search but I finally found one in mint condition, with its manual and test leads. When I first saw one in pictures I loved it looks and I wanted one badly. I might make a Plexiglas display for this one.
The meter is first manufactured in the UK sold as Pifco all in one, I think it was a good meter back in 1930’s, later on 30’s a company in Germany start to manufacture these, as in my manual states “Die Ausfuhr nach England, britischen Gebiet und außereuropäischen Staaten ist nicht gestattet” and it was sold as Pifco universal prüfer
Here some information on both:

Back side with all text remaining, some parts got vague after years:
It is not in specs anymore LOL
, don’t forget how old this meter is. Just to mention my granddad was a baby back then, and I got a 17 years old kid so do the math
Just to show what size it is, next to a Fluke 80 series:
