Colorful Pair of Old Cloth Measuring Tapes - 50 & 75 Ft robot but really a wonderfully done

but really a wonderfully done

11" tall with a diameter of 3 1/2" across at opening and 4 3/8" across at base

and i've added a bit of archival tape to the reverse to secure one edge

but it seems there were quite a lot of apothecaries and pharmacies that came and went on Tremont street

Colorful Pair of Old Cloth Measuring Tapes - 50 & 75 Ft robot but really a wonderfully doneI love the look of these old measuring tapes in their old yellow and green paint, and find it quite a joy to pull the cloth tape (50 and 75 feet of it respectively) all the way out, then spin it back in again! With a really nice weight to them, brass edges and hardware, with hinged handles on one side that pop out to help with the spinning. They just don't make tools like they used to, and I find cloth measuring a handy thing to have around for
