Nose-gage for making spectacles Dec 4, 1900

Nose-gage is a very rare item.
A google search only turns up the patent itself from Dec 4, 1900.
This steel device was designed to take various fitting measurements that were needed to fit glasses at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th.
The website devoted to patents on American Machinery states there were no known manufacturers for this item.
However, Jos Freidlander & Bro, an optical company, in 1900, has its name on this one.
