Description: A mid-century vintage mechanical spring-driven kitchen scale produced by the American Family Scale Company. Crafted from sheet metal and finished in its original muted green enamel paint. Features a prominent circular white clock-style dial face with black numeric markers and a dark indicator arrow. The unit includes its matching, removable oval scoop or weighing pan that nests securely onto the flat upper metal platform.
Dimensions: The scale body stands approximately 8.5 inches high to the flat platform, extending to roughly 11.5 inches high with the scoop pan attached.
Markings: The circular dial face features printed graphic text reading "American Family Scale", "Weighs 25 Pounds by Ounces", and a prominent regulatory disclosure stating "NOT LEGAL FOR USE IN TRADE".
Condition: Authentic vintage condition showing age-appropriate cosmetic wear. The green enameled body displays light scuffs, localized surface scratches, and tiny paint nicks. The removable oval metal scoop pan exhibits a localized patch of surface rust oxidation on its interior base. The internal mechanical weighing mechanism and adjustment screw remain intact and functional.
