Y-206. FOLDING SQUARE. Kellogg Patent. Frank J. Kellogg of Battle Creek made a lot of money trading on the name of the more famous Kelloggs to sell patent medicine, but before that on Christmas Day 1883 he patented this strange ?French Tailor's Square." What it has to do with tailoring is not clear, but it's an ingenious folding square with a locking brace. In very clean condition with some tarnish to the brass.
