A wonderful antique gauge.   I think it's for typesetting.   From a very eclectic relative's estate. It measures a little over 23 inches all together,  and has measurements up to 300. The numbers are carved into the wood by hand,  you can see if you zoom in.  Rather primitive, hand made feel. The numbers are slightly larger at 50, 100, 150, etc.  and smaller at 15, 25, 35, 45... There is a brass edge, and brass end pieces,  along with little brass fasteners at intervals all along the wood. It's got a great old patina.   A small crack in the wood at the top---please see photos.  On the back are some initials,  and some scrapings, maybe some other initials removed?   A great old industrial piece.  Displays wonderfully.   If you know anything about it, please share your knowledge.   If you have questions about the item,  I would be happy to try to answer them. Thank you for looking!
