Default Thermometer Identification

Hi:

I'm selling a thermometer from Tagliabue Mfg. Co. on eBay, but I'm not
positive what it was used to gage the temperature of - steam, water,
beer, etc.

Any experts out there?

Thanks.

I would think it could be used as a sauna temp gauge but it doesn't go quite
high enough for the true Finns.

I'd guess it's an old hot water boiler temp gauge. It doesn't go up high
enough to be a steam boiler gauge.
