Scales
One of the founding principles of the Rochdale Equitable Pioneers Society was that of honest weights and measures. The Co-operative Wholesale Society eventually had its own scale-making department where it manufactured a variety of scales. Many CWS scales like the one in our collection were donated to the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. You can view images of these on their website by following the link – http://emu.msim.org.uk/htmlmn/collections/online/results.php
