All,
I have an opportunity to purchase an old collection of calipers and dividers. They want $750, which seems high based upon what I've seen, but if something here is special maybe its a great way to great some sweet old pieces.
Here are some of the markings. L.S. Starrett Co Athol Mass, C’Aiesborne & Co Newark NJ, Jerkin Rule Co Saginaw Mich, WH Johnny Newark NJ, AST Steel, Secont 10. I'm told the rest are hand forged.
See anything great or have any idea if this is something I should take a stab at.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
