The brass measure remains functional and is stamped AM Flask & Cap co. The measure has gradation marks of 1 and 1 1/4, it unscrews from the body of the pouch. The leather has a dark almost mahogany patina while the brass measure has the dark patina of aged metal.
The Flask measures approx. 8 1/2 inches long, the widest point of the body is approx. 3 1/2 inches wide. It is approx. 1 1/2 inches deep.
