Tape Measures
 
 This month I have chosen to feature two tape measures , given away by
Canadian Oil Companies Limited .The example on the  right  is a quality piece made by
the Lufkin Company  and measures just under  1 1/2 " in diameter .
I am only guessing but I suspect it was from the Twenties or Thirties .
 Shown on the left is a "Zippo" tape measure , given out in August 1962  at the launching
of the new Canadian Oil tanker ' M/V  W. Harold Rea '  at Collingwood Ontario .
It is approx.  1 1/2 " square.
