Stanley # A 18 Block Plane Stanley made these planes during the mid 20's after Aluminum became a plentiful and cheap material to use.

Stanley Type 2 #110 Block Plane w/ Shoe Buckle Cap The 110 block plane was first offered in 1875. The first model had slightly different side rail profiles.

The collectors tag stuck inside the body of this indicates he bought it from Roger Smith back in the 70's. That is over 40 years ago.

The condition is very nice. The shoe buckle cap is damage free. The front knob is so nice I am guessing it might be a replacement, but do not know. A hard to find early and rare block plane in very nice condition.
