Saw this hanging on the wall at a Cracker Barrel restaurant.  Can't figure this one out.  Any ideas?

A scribe of some sort?

I think it is an old carpet stretcher.

I didn't even think of that, but that's exactly what it is.

Got one just like it hanging on the wall in my shop.  I cheated and put a bunch of carpet tacks in the "magazine".  It makes it a little easier to identify.

Those framed posters suggest a Florida spot.

Thanks, guys. And yes, this is on the wall of a Cracker Barrel restaurant in Winter Garden, FL - a suburb of Orlando.
