Over the next several weeks, I am planning to list nearly 1000 antique and vintage tape measures. These include advertising, celluloid, plush, figural, and more. All are fresh to the market, from a local Florida estate.
Please excuse the glare and reflections in the shiny celluloid surface.
Features a center-push release button. The internal spring remains strong, and the cloth tape retracts crisply into the case with a firm "click" when the button is pressed.
Please see large photos for exact condition.
Measures approximately 1 1/2" in diameter.
Displays beautifully, with no dents, dings, cracks, hidden damage, or repairs. Cloth tape fully retracts, with no issues.
Guaranteed to be vintage circa-1930's, and not a modern reproduction!
SAVE ON SHIPPING! I am happy to ship multiple items together for discounted shipping. To take advantage of shipping discounts, items must be paid WITH ONE PAYMENT TRANSACTION. If you are purchasing multiple items, and ebay's invoice does not automatically calculate the correct discounted shipping charge, then PLEASE request a combined shipping invoice with all your purchases listed BEFORE making payment.
Some unusually large or heavy items require their own shipping box, and do not qualify for combined shipping. Also, in most cases, books will be shipped via Media Mail, and cannot be shipped with glass or pottery items.
As you can see by my feedback, I am known for extremely fast packaging and shipping. Normally, paid items are shipped the next business day. I understand that buyers are sometimes anxious for receipt of their purchases, but during unusually busy periods, please allow up to two business days for shipping.
Please do not ask me to falsify customs documents.
Import duties, taxes and charges, if any, are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs might be prior to bidding/buying.
