This BILATERAL of Jakob Maul is an excellent condition. The rates of this scale are from 0 till 60 grams at the lower chart, and from 0 till 250 grams on the upper chart. The lower chart has a stripe per gram, the upper scale has a stripe per five grams. The reading charts are concav-shaped. This feature copied of Ph.J. Maul, is given concrete form to in a slightly different way. This letter scale is an ugly combination of rounded and sharp angular patterns. The overall shape-symmetry makes the total image just acceptable again. The name of the model and the logo of Jakob Maul are pressed into a part of the mechanism. This model also exists with different ranges, earlier I already presented a 500 grams version. Below some more photos of this letter scale.
