Jacobs Brothers scale
c. 1900-1980
This is a Jacobs Brothers manufactured platform scale with steelyard type balance with loose weights that are suspended from the short arm of the beam. The removable tray appears to be missing, it would have sat on the four-pronged support structure and would be used to weigh smaller, odd-shaped items.
