Ruler

A wooden ink ruler from the trading firm A. Magnus & Co, located at Magasinsgatan 24, Gothenburg. The ruler has a triangular shape and is wider on one side than the other. Its length is 54 cm, but it lacks any measurement markings. It is 2 cm wide at the narrowest end and 7.5 cm wide at the widest end. The ruler is decorated with a painted floral design, and there are several clear ink marks visible on it. It was acquired by the City Museum in November 1974 as a gift from the merchants Einar and Leif Henriques, Gothenburg.
