This letter scale design can be found with and without a mark. The marks are for instance Hema, Lama and Ronia. Mostly the name is put on the ornamental chrome cap of the pendulum weight. The addition "made in GDR" may be put there also sometimes. This scale has a turn-over counterweight. The ranges are 250 and 1000 grams. The frame is folded from steel plate. The plate is solidly made and has a smart heightened edge. Earlier, several other specimens were shown. Look at modern scale, hema-like scale, and also at the Lama. Below some more pictures of this letter scale.
