Case rain gauge, anyone seen one of these anywhere?

[Wrangler1973]

I'm currently bidding on this JI Case rain gauge. It's made of plastic and right now I have the winning bid but considerably more than I thought it would go for. Anyone else seen one like this?

Pretty cool! Good thing you posted it after you won the bid, or someone here might have bid against you lol.

Well $151 later before taxes and other fees. It's the most expensive piece of plastic I own.

Ouch!

Ouch!

Yeah that took a bite or of my pocket book for sure. Needless to say it won't be seeing a drop of rain. It wouldn't even if it was only $10 if there's none like it available for some time. Internet search didn't yield any results.

could it be a reproduction?

I seen them sell a few years ago at about 20.00 HAppy you got one for your collection.

I'm not sure. There's no other markings on it that I could see. My internet searches did find anything else like it, I may need to research it better tonight.

GOOGLE "Morco Green Wave rain gauge".

Seems odd the one you bought doesn't have a dealer name on it.

I would've been happy to pay $20
