This is possibly the oldest rule I have ever had. Made somewhere between 1835 and 1860. This rule did not belong to a carpenter, as it appears to have never been used. My guess is that it has spent several generations in a junk drawer. This rule is as good as you could ever find. Excellent, excellent piece.
