Rex micrometer




 Apparently part of the Brown and Sharpe line, I'm not sure where the Rex name fits in. This was patented in 1923 and looks like a good solid measuring device.

There's a comment on Practical Machinist that says the 1/4" knurling on the thimble means it was made in 1929 but I don't know if that's accurate.
