Roll-up measuring tape in a leather case. Embossed with maker's name. Brass fittings and lip-in roller, marked ’50 ft’. Rubberised tape, marked in feet and inches on one side and links on the other.
Purported to have been owned by William (Bill) Allen, Somerset on auction site, however no player of that name played for Somerset. Bill Alley not only played for Somerset, but also became an umpire.
Used for measuring pitches etc. This company later merges with Rabone
