The ruler measures 18 1\/4\" x 2 1\/2\" and is relatively heavy, being made entirely of brass, and is intended for use on Naval Charts. It has two linked roller \"wheels\" built into it, so that it can be easily moved parallel to its previous position, a very useful feature when dealing with maps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ruler is in very good condition, and marked on the top with Army \u0026amp; Navy C.S.L., which stands for the Army \u0026amp; Navy Co-operative Stores Limited. located in Victoria Street, London.
