It's a sighting to view the level of water of a boiler we have one collected from a railroad logging site.

Subject: Looking for help ID'ing a glass artifact
Hi all,
We recently found an unusual glass artifact associated with an early to mid- 20th Century logging town that was used as a sanitarium after the mill shut down, and refuse deposits from the two periods are mixed.
We've put some pictures of the glass artifact on our website- if anyone has any idea what this might have been used for or a part of, we'd love to know:
http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Environment/CulRes/Compliance.htm
Dimensions are on the website-it's a thick, oval-shaped bar of clear glass, with ridges molded on one side and "Made in Germany" etched on the other. It looks like something industrial-a lens for some kind of light, perhaps, but we haven't seen anything like it before.
Thanks,
Scott S. Williams
