About the Item

Freestanding manual body weight scale produced by Seca, the Hamburg-based German weighing instrument manufacturer. Constructed of off-white enameled metal, the scale features a low-profile rectangular platform with a black enameled surface and rounded corners, a slender vertical column, and a horizontal crossbar housing the mechanical weighing mechanism. Chrome hardware accents the crossbar assembly, including a cylindrical dial indicator and adjustment knob. Seca has manufactured precision weighing instruments since 1840, supplying medical and professional markets across Europe and beyond. Mid-Century production scales like this one reflect the clean functional design sensibility that characterized German industrial manufacturing during the postwar decades, prioritizing legibility and durability in professional settings. Shows minor wear consistent with age and use, and retains its original finish and components throughout.

Antique Columbia Penny Scale, Coin Operated

Antique Columbia Penny Scale, Coin Operated

By Columbia Weighing Machine Company 1

Located in Peekskill, NY

This is a wonderful piece of Americana! It’s an authentic penny scale that were often used at drug stores during the last part of the 1800s-circa 1920s. It's a large floor model penny scale from circa 1920s. This scale was made by the Columbia Weighing Machine Co. NY. It measures 70 1/2 inches tall by 16 1/2 inches wide and the bottom portion is 27 inches from front to back. Sides are made of wood, the bottom portion where you stand is made of porcelain with mozaic tiles, and there are two mirrored sections on the front of the scale. Scale is in working order but needs an adjustment or I've finally lost a few pounds. The Columbia Weighing Machine Company was founded in Pittsburgh in 1902. Ten years later they moved to the Bronx NY. The company started making coin operated scales...
