It still has the 2 original skeleton keys for it. All hardware is intact and functioning. It has 2 spots of paint overspray on front. Someone tried to varnish it and botched the job so it will have to be re-finished. Has some dings and dents and I found one crack on the bottom side. It must be rare, I can't find it on the internet. Does anyone know the date, history, and value?

This a solid brass foldling rule with ornate design of leaves and acorns on the hinge. The holders are in tack that holds the sides together. If cleaned up would be near excellent condition. All numbers are very legible to the naked eye.
I have found a lot of F.Beda reproductions, but I have yet to find this one entitled "The Entertainment"! Would like to get some sort of value for an estate sale later.
