The calibration for altitude being in reverse is highly unusual as is the barometric scale which to the best of the cataloguers knowledge does not appear to conform to any of the multitude of conventional units used for barometric pressure.

By 1898 Thomas Malby and Son were trading as ‘Globe and Map Sellers to the Admirality’ from 37 Tithe Queens Street Holborn, London. The Engraver’s signature to the horizon paper relates to Thomas’s brother, Charles Isaac Malby (1816, post 1868), who worked as one of the principal engravers within the firm.

Solari di Udine, an offshoot of Ditta Fratelli Solari (Solari Brothers Company), was established by brothers, Fermo and Remigio Solari in Udine, Italy in 1948. It was there that Remigio Solari invented what would come to be called the Solari Board - a mechanical digital display that showed numbers and letters on a rotating flap system. For this innovation the company received the Italian ‘Compasso d'Oro’ (Golden Compass) award for industrial design. These information display systems have become the mainstay of arrival and departure boards displaying arrival and departure times in train and airports world over since the 1950s and 60s, with the first being installed at the Liège-Guillemins Railway Station, Liège, Belgium in 1956. The Solari di Udine range of wall and table timepieces were designed by the highly respected Italian Modernist architect Gino Valle and were most often used in semi-public environments such as banks.
