This seems to be a nice find, a Kodak Co. circa 1920 balance scale, as stated on the chromed plate, "FOR PHOTOGRAPHIC PURPOSES". But, of course, it could be used for measuring other relatively light weight materials. The 6 original weights move from 2 at 50 gr. to the largest which is 2 ounces. The trays are also original, a non-ferrous metal in fine condition. The weights are of steel and have some staining from oxidation. The wood base is very clean, undamaged. The whole ...unit together weighs about 1 1/2 pounds. Check out my other items.Shipping for this lot within theUS contiguous states will be determined by the ebay/PO calculator.
