For sale is a rare vintage thermometer scale embossing die from the 1950s, originating from the Memphis Engraving Company in Memphis, TN. This metallic die features a dual Celsius and Fahrenheit scale, with Celsius ranging from -50°C to 50°C and Fahrenheit from 0°F to 150°F. Measuring approximately 5 cm long (as shown with ruler for scale), this die was likely used to emboss or print temperature scales onto thermometers during the mid-20th century. The raised numbers and lines, along with small alignment symbols (like a clover), reflect the precision craftsmanship of the era. Perfect for collectors of vintage industrial tools, thermometer enthusiasts, or those interested in the history of engraving and manufacturing. In good condition with some signs of wear consistent with age and use. Don’t miss this unique piece of industrial history! Shipping via USPS with tracking. Please message with any questions.
