If you can see any details that would be great but don’t worry if it’s too hard to get to. Best wishes Bethan From: Social History Curators Group email list <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Judeth Saunders Sent: 31 October 2019 10:13 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Leather Measuring Machine This is an email sent via the SHCG List. If you reply to this message, your message will be sent to all the people on the list, not just the author of this message. ------------------------------- Hi Bethan We have two: one (attached photo) looks very similar to the one you’ve been offered, the other is larger. If you’d like me to check any details against these models let me know - I’m in the store today and next Thursday. My knowledge of the machine is close to non-existent so I can’t advise on its rarity or history. As you can see we have some issues with space too (!) so physical access is tricky, but I might be able to investigate for model/ serial numbers if you like.

As you will see below the machine is quite large and as with many others our stores are getting increasingly full. I therefore wanted to see if anyone else already has one in their collections or knows of one in another collection. It is made by Tanners of Leeds. The machines dimensions are: 120cm deep 200cm wide 185cm high Best wishes Bethan [Image removed by sender.]<http://www.swheritage.org.uk/> South West Heritage Trust is supported by Somerset and Devon County Councils South West Heritage is a charity and a company limited by guarantee registered in England.
