set of letter scale and opener, a business present from Honeywell | This set, existing of a letter scale and a letter opener, is a business present, a promotional article from Honeywell. Weighing a letter is done by drawing the white part out until an equilibrium is reached. In this position one reads the chart. The chart is given in ounces and in grams. The designer forgot the fact that European postal weight limits in grams, are not corresponding with the American weight limits in ounces. Now a mark is given at 28 grams, while a mark at 20 grams would have made more sense. Below some more pictures of this promotional article. | weighing a letter |
