Description: Vintage Antique Landers Improved Spring Balance 0-50 lbs Brass Faced Steel Hanging Spring Scale. Brass face is approximately 8 1/2 inches long and 2 1/4 inches wide with an overall length from top ring to bottom hook of approximately 12 1/2 inches. Fully functional with no attempt to clean or polish. In the 18th century, spring scales appeared. To produce these scales, a manufacturer would use the resistance of a spring to calculate weights, which could be read automatically on the scale’s face. This Landers Balance scale is a hand-held fishing scale, Improved Spring Balance model. Circa early 1900s (to the best of my research). Condition is very good, completely original and functional. Weighs from 0 to 50 pounds and is fairly accurate. Many of these scales were sold to fisherman to weigh his or her catch of large trout or salmon. The face plate states "Landers Improved Spring Balance Warranted". No damage or repairs to the metal case, hook or ring, other than from normal use, although there is some rust on the back side of the unit. The spring for the spring balance is good working condition.
