On offer is a compact sized two gang 15pF + 15pF air dielectric variable capacitor of compact size which was manufactured by Jackson Brothers in the UK. 

It measures about 3.50 inches [including rotor shaft] x 1.85 inches wide x 1.35 inches from the base to allow for the rotor swing and is mounted by screws through brackets on both the front and back plates. The rotor is mounted with a ball race at one end, a thrust bearing at the other end and has a 0.25 inch diameter shaft which is about 1.00 inches long.

I have listed it as 15pF + 15pF, but the actual values are 5.5pf to 15.4pF on one gang and 5.2pF to 15.2pF on the other - see photographs 9, 10, 11 and 12, as measured on a Peak LCR40 component analyser [for info].

This appears to be 'new-old stock', without any signs of solder on any of the tags; the condition and description can better be judged from the photographs, which are of the actual capacitor on offer for sale.

This has been priced to sell, without reserve.
