The Steel Scale (1969)
🕑 Added 2023-01-14 01:08:16 +0000 UTCA nifty little reel out of my collection that has a lot of good tips for taking accurate measurements with a steel ruler. As always I transferred this film with my own Telecine ans did color correction to taste. Enjoy!

That's a distorted view of history - Women's Lib was a despised fringe movement and very much out of the mainstream back then. And still is today, actually. ERA? Nope. This film was made for Vocational Schools and there were lots of systems in place back then to keep the workforce in machining very uniformly male. Girls were put into secretarial school to be typists, and home economics to be homemakers.

No. Just some other Joe.

I thought the graphic presentation was excellent, but rulers are used by boys? This was 1969. People were starting to say him or her by then. Womens' Lib was really getting into full swing.
