Old Stanley Boxwood and Brass 12 Inch Folding Ruler with Caliper ice cream mold deputy sheriff

The bottom drawer is a bit tight but opens with a little force

marching hearts along the bottom

and at least a hundred years old I believe

which shows some age

Old Stanley Boxwood and Brass 12 Inch Folding Ruler with Caliper ice cream mold deputy sheriffSince finding a few of them recently, I've been keeping an eye out for old folding rulers when I'm out and about; I think they're just great looking, as well as a treat to use. This is a Stanley model 36 1 2" twelve inches unfolded, with a brass caliper that extends another five inches. There remains brass pin near the opening end which locks into the opposite side to hold it closed. 6 3 4" l x 1 3 8" w x 1 8" d when folded. I have not touched either
