Antique Wooden Folding Ruler - Classic Measuring Tool for Collectors & Craftsmen #3253662 (License: Personal Use)

This antique wooden folding ruler features two hinged sections made of light-toned hardwood, likely beech or maple, with clearly engraved inch graduations and numerals. Brass rivets and a central hinge allow it to fold compactly, while the aged patina and minor scuffs suggest authentic historical use. The ruler measures up to 24 inches when fully extended, making it practical for fieldwork or workshop tasks before the era of metal and plastic tools.

Commonly used in vintage tool collections, museum exhibits, or educational content about pre-digital measurement methods; appeals to hobbyists, historians, woodworkers, and educators seeking authentic period artifacts.
