Toledo Scale

    We have this lollipop scale model 1800 made by toledo. It can weigh up to 500lbs. I was at a museum and it dated back to the early 1900s when I saw a scale similar to this one. Now I'm curios when this one was made and what possible value there may be. I did some googling but didn't find much. The last inspection sticker date is 9-56.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Yes I googled all that info before making this thread.
    Just thought someone might be knowledgeable about Toledo scales that were not made by Toledo....perhaps Toledo in china?

    why China ? Toledo scales as yours were always simple heavy duty industrial and farm scales.
    when they were taken over by Mettler Switzerland they learnt how many zeros after the comma a scale can have.
