Reproduction of a poster entitled Weights and measures and subtitled Table drawn up in accordance with the law of July 11 and the decree of July 28, 1903.

This reproduction of a 1929 educational poster is a true testament to education in the past, depicting the systems of weights and measures as they were taught in schools. Created to raise students' awareness of the different units of measurement, the poster clearly and visually details essential concepts such as the meter , the liter , the kilogram and their multiples. It also illustrates the correspondences between the different units, with precise illustrations of measuring instruments, such as cast iron weights, liters and steres for measuring wood.

Scales and volumes are presented in an orderly fashion, with explanations of conversions, capacities, and equivalences, particularly for the measurement of liquids and solids. It also includes concepts related to franc currencies and an overview of the systems used in commerce, industry, and agriculture.

This historical poster, with its clear and functional graphic style, was designed to be displayed in classrooms, providing a practical visual tool to help students understand the basic principles of the metric system. Today, this reproduction is an excellent addition for vintage decor lovers, educational history enthusiasts, or to add a retro touch to a workspace or library.
