This is an authentic vintage Hanson Model No. 8920 hanging spring scale, famously branded as \'The Viking\'. Manufactured in Northbrook, Illinois, USA, this heavy-duty industrial scale features a robust steel construction with a 200-pound capacity measured in 2-pound increments. The face plate displays the iconic Viking logo and clear numerical markings, though it shows significant signs of age. This item is a perfect find for collectors of vintage industrial tools, rustic farmhouse decor enthusiasts, or those looking for a unique restoration project. Its weathered patina and heavy-duty steel body offer a genuine antique aesthetic that works well in workshops, garages, or as a statement piece in a rustic-themed interior. While the mechanical spring appears intact, the exterior shows surface rust and wear consistent with its age and long-term storage in a workshop environment.
