Hi Jim, welcome back!
I have Lufkin catalog # 104 here. I can't find a year on it, but my guess is
about 1930 - 1945. It lists #8151 as a "Taylor's curve stick". I believe
these were used to measure the distance between the floor and the bottom of
the hem of a lady's dress.
Hope this helps. Glad to have a spry and active Galoot like you on the list!
Chris
