Zenith Trans-Oceanic log chart, door and frame for brown leather case

 

The log chart and door frame came from a Zenith Trans-Oceanic Y600L brown leather case. The chart door came from a Zenith Trans-Oceanic T600 black stag case. The door was originally gray and was air brushed brown. The inner dial of the Zenith Dial-O-Map was missing from the log chart. The one shown is a scan of an original Dial-O-Map. The scan was printed and trimmed to match the original. It is not as thick as the original, but it works. The log chart is otherwise complete with no missing pages. It has moister stains on the right half of the first couple of pages and as a result is a little rumpled but is geneally in good shape. The chart door has a plastic repair to the left hinge where the metal rod passes through. The built up section shows a crack were it bonds to the original plastic(see lower left corner of chart door in upper picture). The spring for the left side hinge that closes the door was removed because the repair isn't strong enough to support the spring's tension. The other spring keeps the door closed, with some help from a tiny wedge of cardboard just barely visible at the top left edge of the chart door in the upper picture. The spring was saved in case a stronger repair can be devised. The door frame has some scratches, mostly in the upper right corner. A brown pantone pen was used to make them less noticable and then the frame was polished with Novus #2. $30 plus shipping.
