Late 19th Century Great Eastern Railway (GER) Cast Iron Weight An authentic, pre-grouping cast iron office weight issued by the Great Eastern Railway (GER), dating from the late Victorian or Edwardian period. These weights were standard equipment in station booking offices and goods depots to secure ledgers, waybills, and telegrams. Cast in solid iron, the piece features the distinctive raised ‘GER’ initials on the front face and an integrated turned finial handle. The surface remains entirely unrestored, displaying a dark, honest patina with minor surface oxidation consistent with decades of industrial use. A heavy, tactile piece of transport history that functions perfectly as a contemporary desk weight.
