Description
This is the motometer on a beautifully restored Ford car. There were many wonderful old Fords on display at the wheat threshing demonstration in Elbert, Colorado a couple of summers ago.
The Boyce MotoMeter was patented in 1912, and was used in automobiles to read the temperature of the radiator. From then through the late 1920s, the Boyce MotoMeter Company in Long Island City, New York, founded in 1912 by the German immigrant Hermann Schlaich, manufactured a variety of different models which varied in size and design.
