I was visiting the tool guy at Prudhommes antique market in St. Catherines, he brought this set out from his "special private stash". He said he has not been able to find any information on it at all. The set consists of a number of ceramic or black glass wedges 1/4" thick, of different lengths, The angle is the same on them all, and the long edge is tapered to a soft edge. It must be a set of go no-go gauges for some long lost manufacturing process. No information on the company that I can find.
