Default Radiomarine Corporation part

Something interesting came my way today. It is an indicator magnifier and light shroud(I don't know the proper term) for a Radiomarine Corporation of America radar set. The company was in business from 1927 to 1956 and I would like to associate this to a specific set. The shroud was a common item for repeater, or relay radar CRTs in high ambient light areas, or maybe in subs for red light times, but the magnifier points to older small CRT times. The diameter of the magnifier is about 8.75".

Let me know what you think.







This magnifier lens is about 2" thick.
