Stanley Low Angle Block Plane Collection
In this lot is a collection of three antique Stanley low angle block planes. The first is a nickel plated Stanley No.19. Sharing the same nickel plated knuckle jointed lever cap evolution as the no. 18, and the same 1-5/8 inch cutter used on all these planes, the no. 19 is identical to the no. 18 in every way except length. It was made from 1888 to 1949. The next plane is a Stanley 102. The No. 102 was manufactured from 1877 to 1962 and did not have an adjustable depth but was very popular with workmen as it was small enough to be easily carried in the pocket. The last plane is the Stanley No. 65 1/2 The no. 65-1/2 version is considered by some collectors as a bit of an oddball, in that it retained the original japanned hooded style lever cap throughout its entire life span. While you don’t see nearly as many of them as you do the more popular no. 65, they were certainly made for a very long time (1902-1950). All these planes are in good working condition with finish wear to be expected for the age.
