pocket scale
hand held scale
 

Presumably this pocket scale originates from Germany. The given unit of measurement at the chart is GRAMM. The range is 100 grams. It's made of nickeled brass. Only the little holding ring is of magnetic steel, therefore this is probably not original. The letter clip is designed particularly. It's formed out of one piece of material and smartly folded. This specimen is deformed a little bit, but still looks beautiful. Till 30 grams there is a stripe per five grams. Above 30 grams a stripe per ten grams is given. The back of the scale is left blank totally. Below some more pictures of this pocket scale.
