This nice 12” rule with No. 4 Gradations is clearly marked by the Sawyer Co. after its reorganization about 1901. Aside from a very few small groups of fine pitting, it is in top collector condition. The rule comes with two key seat clamps that are also clearly marked with the Sawyer name. The Sawyer clamps were first produced in 1902, and were then copied by the L.S. Starrett Co, who still make them today. The Sawyer- marked clamps are especially uncommon. This is a nice piece for a Sawyer collection. Fine.
