Bebe Patented Cast Iron Lighted LevelBebe Patent Mining Level    This is a nice level, noting the bulb is missing.  As if it was never there.  I have heard that most are found this way without the light hooked up and that they are assembled afterward to make them right. 

Good . . . . .  $895.00       SOLD




Davis & Cook "Pin Wheel" LevelDavis & Cook 12" Cast Iron "Pin Wheel" Level    This is a rare design for a metal level. The came in several sizes and also aluminum I believe. 

Good . . . . .  $795.00       SOLD





Davis & Cook 24" Aluminum Level Davis & Cook 24" Aluminum Level  This unusual level is in very nice condition.  The rings around the adjustable vials have all the important info giving the Manufacturer as Davis & Cook of Watertown N.Y. and the Patent date of Oct 20th 1903.  This was one of the first tools or levels that was produced from Aluminum and is quite unusual for this and it's unique design and decorative finish.  Seldom seen and rarely offered for sale, it is a good one!

Good . . . . .  $495.00      SOLD



Stratton Brothers 6" Machinist Level Stratton Brothers 6" Machinist LevelThis is a rare example of a very hard to find level that Stratton Brothers produced during their heyday in the late 19th century.  The bubble is good and appear to be original.  There is some nickel loss as can be seen in the Pic, but the design is still sharp and nice.  Only the 3rd one I have ever seen.

Good . . . . . $395.00       SOLD



Davis Level & Tool Co. Marked #37 1/2 Pocket Level Davis Level & Tool Co. Marked #37 1/2 Pocket Level This level is clearly marked with both the size and the Davis L. T. & Co. round logo.  It is in super condition even though there is not a whole lot of japanning left.  Like the unmarked example below this one measures 3 1/2" long.

Good . . . . . . $225.00       SOLD



C. E. Jennings 12" Cast Iron Level C. E. Jennings 12" Cast Iron Level  This interesting and unusual level is nearly as graphic as those made under the Davis Patent, and well could have been made by them for Jennings.  This example still sports approx. 80% or so of it black japanned finish.  The bubbles are all good and appear to be original.  There is no damage to the webbing, or chips at the ends or corners as is often the case.  There is one small casting flaw in the top rail, but this is factory.  An interesting note about this level is that it appears that the main vial is adjustable as there are 4 screws at the bottom under the main vial, and there is a cradle affair that this vial sets in.   I would imagine that this indicates an adjustable feature that the more typical Davis levels lack.

Good . . . . .  $245.00       SOLD



Davis 12" Cast Iron LevelDavis 12" Cast Iron Level  This is a nice looking 12" Davis level in the small frame size.   

Good . . . . .  $125.00       SOLD



Wm. T. Nicholson 1860 Patent #13 Cast Iron LevelWm. T. Nicholson 1860 Patent #13 Cast Iron Level This level is in nice condition and although it shows considerable wear and loss of finish it is none the less a hard level to find. With a careful cleaning it will be ready to take its place with the rest of your rare Stanley pieces.  The main vial may have been replaced and the plumb is good and original.  This style level has a peep hole in the base for overhead work.

Good . . . . .  $125.00       SOLD



Keen Kutter KK # K624 Cast Iron 24" Level Cast iron levels by Keen Kutter are very difficult to find, and to find one in this condition is even harder.  Nearly all the black japanning is present.  There is no rust or pitting, and even the nickel on the vials is very nice.  There are no casting problems, chips or cracks.  It is just a well-made level in super condition from a very collectible maker.

Good . . . . . $225.00      SOLD





Goodell Pratt 12" Cast Iron Nickel Plated Bench Level in Original BoxGoodell Pratt 12" Cast Iron Nickel Plated Bench Level in Original Box  This is a very well made level and is in super overall condition.  Other than some minor corrosion and nickel loss to the upper bar is is very nice.  Another level not seen very often, and ready for the job or the shelf.  Nice.

Good . . . . . . $125.00       SOLD
