Vintage Hamilton 8 Ounce Postal Scale

I just love the look of this vintage Hamilton postal scale, circa 1930s-40s.  It's seen some use, with some scratches and rust and a little spots of paint, and seems to rest at a weight a bit to the left of zero--but it's still a great little object, with a terrific mix of curves and angles. I'd sit it on a shelf with a favorite little treasure of two set on its platform, which swivels 360 degrees.

5 1/2" tall x x  4 1/4" wide x 2 1/2" deep.
