    This is an old antique scale to weigh your self on. I cleaned it up alittle after these pictures of it, but I still need to get the rust off and repaint it. It works very presise & accurate.

      I have changed the first picture bc i sanded some of the rust down, i still have a lot more to do to it. Do y'all know the approx year this type Health-o-meter was brought out?

      I have the same scale in my bathroom. Yours is missing the black marbeled linoleum insert. I would date these to the later 40'S.

      Thanks for the comment and the love ROCKER. I figure the scale is from 36-40's. close enough estimate for me. y'all are great :) As Agh mentioned in his email to me earlier, for me to just measure the part where the feet go on and when I find something similar, to then just cut out, etc and attach onto the scale. Because I asked him if it had a mat or not, some of the ones like mine had a mat and some didn't.

      A friend of mine has the same scale with the black mat and little rust. Thanks for your help with the patent info. How does one estimate the value of this item???
