USA patent number: 2589500, March 15, 1952. The reel can be filled with ground chalk via a (plastic) slide on the side. The chalk attaches itself to the cord to be rolled out, with which lines can be drawn on various surfaces. This reel is still produced in China in roughly the same form. The 1950s types are recognizable by the patent and USA manufacturer descriptions.
