7001-224 BIRMINGHAM PLANE CO. "B" plane. George Mosher was a Stanley employee who ripped off the basic Bailey design, changed it just enough to get his own patent, and started the Birmingham Plane Co. which became better known for its T-shaped rabbet planes. These so-called "B Planes", were manufactured only for a couple of years and are scarce. This one's a No. 3 size and in nice clean condition with original marked cutter. Good+ (HNL554) 100 - 200
