More information needed-=Rapidograph what/ The Koh I Noor ( named after the famous diamond, and itself meaning ( Mountain of Light)- Noor, current Queen of Jordan might be translated Lucy- as that also means light. anyhow they were a big outfit and made a large variety of precision instruments and drawing instruments. Originally French,. just a few weeks ago I picked up a Koh-I-Noor French Curve that was marked- Denmark, maybe a branch factory. they are still in business but no longer make Slide-rules. even the Army Corps of Engineers phased them out in I believe l973, no longer an issue item. last Army issue models were picketts and Posts ( both appropriate titles!). I would need more information they made Slide rules and also drawing instruments, still make the latter category. a good ( marque) Koh-i-Noor instruments were used on the drawing board- literally for the Concorde and on the navigation decks of French submarines. Good quality stuff.
