The plane
is in good condition and was lightly cleaned.., the plane
apparently was drop or hit on front edges way back when and chipped front
edge---I dressed both front edges up a little—see pics,…….wood is solid,
but had finish cracking and flaking off---was stripped, sanded and refinished
close to original color,……. The plane has approx 80 to 90 % of the black japanning
intact…… As with the vintage of the plane, there is normal use wear, some
scratches, dings and dents, and some discoloration, all as noted from the
photos.
