Antique Plow Planes in Brown Tool Auction 55

614. UNHANDLED SCREW ARM PLOW. W. Webb. Ebony body and wedge, boxwood arms and nuts, rosewood fence. Threads have a few minor chips and there is a tight split in the toe. Webb worked in Pittsfield in the 1850s; this is his B mark, three stars in AWP. The mark is upside down and a little faint but clearly legible, the toe is also marked with the number 17 and a user name. An attractive plane by an uncommon maker. Fine 800 - 1500 171. SLIDE ARM PLOW PLANE. J.W. Pearce. Ebony body and fence, mahogany arms, fruitwood locking nuts. Pearce (or Pirce) worked in Falls River, MA, until 1853 and then relocated to Providence, RI. His plows are distinguished by a mix of woods and a distinctive upturned skate nose. It has his B mark (but without the Providence, RI) which rates four stars in AWP. Silver mounted, wood near perfect with a couple of small dings. An exceptionally attractive plane from an uncommon maker. Fine 1500 - 3000 408. SCREW ARM PLOW PLANE. Lamb and Brownell. Macassar ebony body and fence with boxwood nuts, arms, boxing strip and wedge. The ebony body has several streaks of dramatic sapwood and the boxwood is smooth, creamy and completely flawless. Absolutely breathtaking. Fine 1500 - 2500 174. SCREW ARM PLOW. E.W. Carpenter. Super clean example of Carpenter's revolutionary 1838 patent. The rosewood outer nuts, almost always found badly chipped, are nearly intact, and the boxwood arms, inner nuts and fence facing are in very nice condition with some minor dinging. Toe stamped with the D mark. Wedge could be a replacement. Fine 500 - 1000 412. PIGGY-BACK PLOW PLANE. H.L. Kendall. Extraordinarily rare example of the double-bodied plow described in Jim Hill's article in The Chronicle (vol. 35, page 80) and pictured on pages 214-15 of Don Rosebrook's book. Both bodies are rosewood, arms and nuts are boxwood, dovetailed ivory inserts around the fence screws and along the fence and body. Threads have very light chipping, body very clean with some minor dinging. Kendall was a Baltimore hardware dealer and the plane shows the characteristics of Baltimore makers, including the locking nut under the depth screw and the mysterious slot in the toe only found on Baltimore plows. Unique and destined to be the centerpiece of any plow collection. Fine 5000 - 9000 168. DECORATIVE SCREW ARM PLOW PLANE. Ohio Tool Co. No one knows exactly why nineteenth century planemakers and carpenters selected the plow plane to lavish their decorative talents on, but this is a supreme example. Although unmarked, it clearly began as a solid rosewood, ivory tipped OTC plow which was decorated with ivory inlays, including stars, hearts, and a crescent moon. It led a hard life, and when found was pretty beat up, but there was enough left for master craftsman Bob Baker to restore it to its former glory. See Rosebrook & Fisher, Wooden Plow Planes, pages 256-258, for the whole story. Fine 4000 - 6000
