New to Ebay, but have been collecting for 40 years, and now it's time to sell.This is a great antique penny scale made by the Columbia Weighing Machine Co. of NY. It measures 70 1/2 inches tall by 16 1/2 inches wide and the bottom portion is 27 inches from front to back. Sides and top are made of metal. The bottom portion where you stand is made of porcelain with mosaic tiles, and there are two mirrored sections on the front of the scale. Scale is in working order and seems to be accurate. The Columbia Weighing Machine Company was founded in Pittsburgh in 1902. Ten years later they moved to the Bronx NY. The company started making coin operated scales with mirrors in 1922, so I would date it to around that time. The top outside mirror shows some foxing/discoloration. The dial has a fair amount of paint flaking. It is missing the back door. Overall, good shape. I nice addition to any coin-op collection or vintage soda fountain or whatever use you can think of.
