C&H MFG . Co . What is it ?

If the center mark was 0 or 90 I could see being used as a listing indicator.

By the time you're listing 90 degrees, you probably don't need an indicator. LOL

I wonder if a part is missing? Like an indicator needle that might pivot in the hole at the top of the triangle.

When I looked up the name of the company it doesn't give a lot of information. There's a patent listing in 1914 that appears to be gasoline related but couldn't get further than that.
It appears the company wasn't a huge one. and I don't think it was related to sugar.

Anyone figure this one out ? Lots of responses but until someone has proof , there will be no chicken dinner awarded ! Seriously , I believe we all are stumped on this one . Maybe the buyer will leave info in his feedback if left .

I bought it, I put in a lowball offer and it was accepted! I'll post some better pictures when it arrives.

I haven't a clue. I was hooked by the ruby lamp jewels.

I thought it was an inclinometer for a vehicle : https://www.goodworkstractors.com/product/sun-company-lev-o-gage-inclinometer/
Except it reads reverse from what I'd think it should ........ So I really have no idea .

Whatever it is, it’s not complete.
The mechanism for activating the lights is missing.
I think it might be some type of inclinometer, like for a crane.

Not likely for a crane. cranes booms start a 0 and up to 90. never seen a crane boom go negative 22.5, no one needs to know 22.5 on crane boom
