The Howe Scale Company became internationally-known for their innovative and accurate scales for weighing everything from airplanes to newborn babies. Though started by the Brandon Manufacturing Company, it moved to Rutland in 1870 to take better advantage of rail transportation.

This Howe merchant scale was manufactured in Rutland, Vermont, circa 1880. The scale provides a platform for the accompanying set of cast iron stacking weights. On the back side there is a hole in the base of the center section for an accuracy certification lead seal. This was required for all scales used in commerce. Since this hole was never sealed, this particular scale most likely was for home use. Check out the benefits of membership https://isasc.org/Membership-Benefits.html
