      I know I have a bunch of them.  Somewhere...  I was looking for a tape measure the other day, and after a rather strenuous search this is the only one I found.  Rather heavy for being just a six foot measure.  Never did find the other ones....  Best wishes. Gary

Nice! I really enjoy retro tools. I'll bet they totally took that amazing style for granted back in the day.

Thanks, Diamond.  It always reminded me of a Master padlock without a shackle.  Never did find my other measures.  Maybe this one ate them?  Best wishes. Gary

I took a few minutes to look up Master Rule.  They made step ladders and folding measures for years.  Two Swedes ran the factory for most of its life in the Bronx.  Nothing to do with Master locks of course.  Bought out by Lufkin in 1956.  Best wishes. Gary
