August 11, 201511 yr Author comment_61934 Your going to need a bigger display case soon!!! LOL!!! My friend enjoys old tools and he found this one locally. He said he already had one- not sure of the make. He said this one was pretty cruddy and he cleaned it up. Thanks for the link! Report
August 11, 201511 yr comment_61936 I love finding these old rulers. Most of them have a great patina on them and I just love the way they look and operate. I can just see them sticking out of the top pocket of pair of overalls and getting used a lot. Report
August 20, 201511 yr comment_62071 Sweet Lew! I have one, and I use it too! I love the folding rulers. That one there is in wonderful shape, nice gift and great friend! Don't display it, use it! Can you believe back in the day hardware stores would hand those out for free to good customers or for promos? Edited August 20, 201511 yr by Courtland Report

Osh Kosh I think. Had a four fold rule that I kept in there. Loved the rule. Report
