<div>While working for a dealership as an employee (a rather short gig) a young
man handed me this gem from his recently deceased grandfather’s estate. He
had no clue as to it’s origin or purpose. I gave him a few bucks and kept
it in a drawer hoping to find an answer someday.</div>

<div>The device is quite sensitive and comes with different weights (one has a
7.5 stamped on it and the other a 10). You can see it measures in the
middle of the scale when balanced on top of a pool ball. There’s a small
disk with a curved surface that is used for calibration purposes. The
scale has no indication of units and spreads from zero to twenty. The
numbers 2227 are stamped to the left of the scale. D.B.G.M. is stamped on the
back of this scale.</div>

<div>I’ve had thoughts of placing it on a bratwurst or knackwurst to check for
firmness and such but I’d hate to get it dirty. </div>
