It measures 43½″ high (1104 mm) in front and side elevation, taken from the outer edges of the drawing. The page shows the same sizes in both units next to the drawing.

Both. cadgrid-egg-chair-front-side-elevation_in.dwg is drawn in inches (INSUNITS 1) and cadgrid-egg-chair-front-side-elevation_mm.dwg in millimeters (INSUNITS 4). Insert the one that matches your drawing at scale 1 and the block comes in at its real size.
