For Sale is an entire collection of antique tools (mostly carpentry). These were personal tools of, and used by my Great Grandfather, who retired shortly before he passed away in the 1960’s. Some clearly had personal modifications that he made (for example the Stanley Planes), but may be restorable with the right spare parts. They were held Nearly 60 years as mementos/displayed as a collection by my dad in his garage before he passed.
I'm not an expert, but have done the best I can to find brands/models, but was not able to identify them all.
They are NOT cleaned, since collectors often prefer original patina. See photos. For pickup in Sherman, IL. Here is a list, there may be a few additional items I overlooked.
