Any old collectors out there?
I was going through some of my dad's old stuff & found something that I'm not sure what it was for or if its worth anything....It might have belonged to my dad, or my uncle.
Any ideas?
It is a OTT Planimeter Type 30 No. 89033
Made in Germany
by the Frederick Post Co. Chicago

Yeah, I don't really know what it was used for either.

When you have walked in my shoes, done what I've done, seen what I've seen, then maybe you can criticize.

I'm not sure if it was my dad's or my uncle's.
My dad was a baker & my uncle was Navy & then Merchant Marine. So I have no idea why either would have had it.
