RARE METALLIC PLANE CO No.17C JACK PLANE c.1876Nice example of Metallic Plane Co. No.17C Jack Plane with METALLIC PLANE CO. - AUBURN N.Y. - PATENTED stamped on the left side (See Pix #8). Still has much of its original Japanning. Bottom and sides are smooth with no pitting. Plane's 15 inch frame has been washed, but NOT cleaned so all patina remains. Its 6-3/8 inch iron is stamped "EXCELSIOR CUTTER - METALLIC PLANE CO. - AUBURN N.Y." (See Pic #9) Main apology is the horn of the tote is... missing; otherwise solid. Bottom corrugations are clean with zero heavy rust or pitting. All threaded parts turn easily. A good one to add to your Elliot Storke patent plane collection.
