    One of the arms is fixed, the other slides along. Used in shoe shops to measure people's feet. Looks like boxwood.

      Hello, Irishcollector. Thanks for posting, that ruler is in fantastic condition. I believe you have solved the mystery, the spacing on the scale ( graduations) sure look the same as the ruler posted in Unsolved Mysteries!!!! Regards, Lou
