Measuring Tape, Singer Centennial 1851-1951 (Vintage Original)
The Singer Manufacturing Company was founded in 1851 and to celebrate their 100-year anniversary Singer Sewing Centers across the country featured many specialty items in 1951.

The measuring tape featured here has the rare original clip - royal blue plastic exterior, 1851-1951 commemorative emblem and white retractable tape. This will be a special collectible to have in your sewing box and makes a wonderful gift.
