Description
This is an absolutely fantastic antique sewing collectible. It is a tuck marker made by H. C. Goodrich and is still in the original box with the original directions for using the Goodrich Tuck Measure & Marker. The instructions say at the top the price is in 1868. This is equivalent to over in today's money! Quite an expensive investment back in those days!The dates which can be found on the item are June 1860, Jan 1867, Aug 1867, and Aug 1868. That makes this piece 154 years old! The box says it "Will Never Wear Out" and is "Perfectly Noiseless". It also says "None Genuine Unless Stamped H. C. Goodrich" which this one is. It appears to be in excellent condition and is very clean.
Box measures 6-5/8" x 2-3/8" x 1" and is in good shape for being 154 years old with only one split to a corner of the part that slides out. Tuck marker measures 6-1/2" x 2" overall.
