Description

Color: Black; White A cased measuring tape, ca. 1910s. The cloth tape is housed in a circular metal case with a color image, probably photographic, of a woman in a head-and-shoulders view, wearing a headgear item with a feather in it. On the front is information of a bakery in Swissvale, Pennsylvania, the hometown of the donor's mother. With tarnish and scratches to the case and wear to the tape, the overall condition is good.
