Dont really know here but my
Dont really know here but my guess would be a tag off of a piece of machinery (tank, truck, howitzer) ??? Ant thing of the other side ?Maybe some type of tag representing the center of gravity for loading different weight onto a trailer/truck ???
William Lawerence, Good afternoon and thank you for your service, sir. I also want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Safe and Happy New Year. I do not know exactly what your tag is, but it could very well be a tag off of some type of lifting device such as a multiple leg sling. It appears to consist of a some common graphic depictions of differnent lifting configurations (maybe 45 and 60 degrees?) where the sling legs are at different angles, which greatly effects their overall rated lifting capability. There also appear to be weights listed in kg. I have been associated with lifting devices for approximately 27 years myself, and know that these type graphic rated capacity tags and depictions have been used for a long period of time, probably since the early 1900's anyway (this date being a guess on my part). This is my best guess.Regards,Critter in Texas
