25-meter Wehrmacht measuring tape.
Metal mechanism housed in a beautiful, intact stitched leather case. The winding handle bears a Waffenamt acceptance mark.
Maker: Massi, dated 1939.
The tape extends smoothly up to 20 cm, after which it becomes stuck. The jam can likely be released, though this is left to the discretion of the next owner should they wish to tinker with the mechanism.
A fine display piece and excellent addition to any Wehrmacht equipment collection!
