Unusual Brass Stencil Wheel with Gorgeous Patina, 1870s still life with book As I've noted elsewhereWhat a gorgeous thing! I'd never seen a stencil wheel like this before, and think it is just fantastic; I certainly love interlocking brass letter and number stencils, but they don't hold a candle to this, where one has all the letters and numbers together, plus a few handy extras (lbs, yds, $, etc.) Held together at the center with a turned wood handle, the arm on top rotates easily around the disc, with two windows for framing the letter or number
