068/366 Tape Measure
Dean Tape Measures. Made in England.
The company was founded in Newington, South London, by Edward Dean who advertised himself in 1846/51 as a 'tailor's measure maker' and in 1861, as a measuring tape maker.
Originally he worked with his father who was a carpenter making builder's measures.
The tape measure belonged to my grandmother who I remember used it when dressmaking and knitting back in the 50's and 60's It's seen better days but has stood the test of time.
