egg scale made by Jakob Maul
This egg scale has the JM logo of Jakob Maul from Zell in Germany. The scale also has the engraving D.R.G.M.. This is the abbreviation of Deutsches Reich Gebrauchs Muster. This is a model registration,
quicker and cheaper than a patent registration. I did not find the papers to proof this D.R.G.M.. The scale of 100grams has a stripe of measure for each gram. Thanks to the cream color reading the scale is easy. The cup shaped egg holder is made of brass. The frame is of cast iron. The original packaging box is still present. This egg scale is in a Jakob Maul catalog of presumably 1931 under number 639. The label tells the box contains 1/12th of a dozen, or just 1 piece.
