I mentioned that I hardly ever used it, maybe once or twice, but is not a new tape. I forget where I picked it up. I'm thinking a local (i.e., small) gun show where the wife of one our deceased shooters was selling off all of his stuff. He had lots of Starrett tools because he used to rebuild Harleys. I also got a Starrett complete inside micrometer set for $20, which I karma'd off here a couple of years ago.
When in doubt, mumble

Yes, I recall. Actually, you are one of the members whose posts I read every word. If only out of respect as I am nearly an Arizonian. That tape looks c. 1960s but may be newer.
Thank you for the opportunity. Ill be in touch in the next few hours. It will be well taken care of with the rest of my vintage Starrett measurement tools.
