From what I have read so far is that Busch stopped making compasses at the end of WWII. Its got Busch Rathenow stamped on the side of the frame. I read somewhere that it was a field compass for officers. But I am not sure. I'm hoping someone out there knows a little bit about this. I paid $10 bucks at a flea market. I figured it wouldn't hurt the pockets too bad if its worthless.
I found one on Ebay that's pretty close to what this one is and they wanted $299
