They were originally called "L.A.P.D. scales" but they are actually postal scales for weighing
envelopes.
The first time I saw a clip like that they were made by a guy from San Francisco at Woodstock,
he sold them for 50 cents ea.
:peace:

Very cool, cheers Oldman!

The heat here is mad. We were talking with our friends in Tenerife about the issues they have. And he mentioned they get a wind from the desert that brings all sorts of nastynesses! Including mites. Well low and behold, I have mites too, the plants were watered by my wife, but bless her, she's working and pregnant and looking after our son while I was gone....so they were kind of low on the list of priorities, lol. They are alive though, and producing lovely beans still. I have sprayed down everything, and fingers crossed these issues blow away like the nice weather we are having.

looks like cleaning tool/tamper for pipe smokers

shovel is for scraping the bowl out, flat bit is for tamping down tobacco n thin thing is for cleaning the neck insides, much like the way you clean n oil a gun

The tools were added after the fact. I saw them for the first time in the late 60's without the tools
then with the tools around 1970. I'm not a historian and could be wrong but this is my experience with them.

Is not a scale. Those little hand scales have a counterweight and a curved piece inscribed with units, ounces on one side and grams on the other. And a clip for the bag.

When I first started selling I'd use a hand scale. Clip a nickel onto it and it'd go straight to 5grams, good stuff !

Lol that brought me back
