Lufkin No. 68 Folding Wood Ruler
Value & Price Guide

Got this old school folding wood ruler. It's a 2-foot, 4-fold style with the brass hinges and ends. Definitely has some wear and patina from age, but the numbers are still readable. Cool little piece for a toolbox or just to have on a shelf. Not perfect but has that vintage look you cant really fake.
