F. T. Griswold Mfg. Co. v. United States

Wilson, Judge:

The merchandise under protest consists of a metal article invoiced as an “inscriber” (plaintiff’s exhibit 1), which was imported with a certain optical testing instrument known as a “straightedge” (plaintiff’s exhibit 2), together with all the necessary equipment therefor. The “straightedge” instrument is used for testing the flatness of surfaces, in which connection the inscriber, when employed with it, is mounted upon and attached to the instru*28ment and serves to give a permanent recording on graph paper of the measurements being made by the straightedge to which it is attached.
