About this product

Product Information

Tape measures, those useful sewing tools in imaginative cases, are now becoming a collecting passion. Presented here are over 700 tape measures in brass, wood, celluloid and porcelain figural shapes, dating back to the 1820s and up to the present. Over 500 color photographs show tape measures in hundreds of variations from animals and birds to people and their houses, and the captions describe their particular winding mechanisms. Each measure is also given a value range

  • Collecting Figural Tape Measures

    This is a great reference to have with good photos and clearly presented information. I think that needlework collectors need all the books that they can find on the subject...and this is a definite.

  • good book

    just what I needed to see the value of any tape or almost any tape that I see on the internet.the value can really be the key to making a good deal.
