This is a rare United States Tire Co. collectible! It is a Schrader's Sons tire gauge, it is marked "SUPPLIED TO UNITED STATES TIRE CO. BRANCHES, AGENCIES, AND DEALERS EVERYWHERE" It is also marked "PATENTED JULY.6.09 & MAR.28.16 OTHER PATENTS PEND. SCHRADER-UNIVERSAL TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE MANUFACTURED BY A. SCHRADER'S SON-INC. BROOKLYN N.Y. U.S.A.". This gauge is about 2.4" long with the inside gauge retracted, and is brass on the outside. It has about 80% of the original nickel plating on it, otherwise in very good condition. It comes with a small leather case that is also in good useable shape, but has a small hole in it down toward the bottom, the snap is marked "SCHRADER'S" also. This one was most likely given as a gift to employees, and to my knowledge is quite rare. A rarely seen automobile tire collectible!
