A line gauge is a ruler with various print-related measuring units on it, such as inches, points, and picas. They are usually designed with the measurement starting at the edge of the ruler. (Many "commercial" rulers have a small space between the edge of the ruler and the actual first 1/16 inch.)

In short, it's a ruler that's more helpful to a printer than a regular one you'd find at staples.
