- Circa - A Latin term meaning 'about', often used in the antique trade to give an approximate date for the piece, usually considered to be five years on either side of the circa year. Thus, circa 1900 means the piece was made about 1900, probably between 1895 and 1905. The expression is sometimes abbreviated to c.1900.
- Live Steam - Live steam models are small, usually scale models of steam-powered vehicles or machinery that use real steam to power their movement. These models can be incredibly detailed and complex, often featuring working pistons, cylinders, and other steam-powered components.
Live steam models are typically made by hobbyists and enthusiasts, who enjoy building and operating these miniature steam-powered machines. They can be used to create working replicas of everything from steam locomotives and steamboats to steam engines and traction engines.
