A couple or weeks ago, I had occasion to go into an antique shop, and while I was there, I noticed this little gem on a shelf. I said I would like to come back and buy it later, when I had the money (and my wife wasn't in the room! ) so he put it away for me. Yesterday I went and got it.
It is a Stanley square, of course, and the style of the manufacturer's mark places it at between 1910 and 1920. It's in very nice shape, and after I clean up the steel a bit, it's going into my toobox. It cost about what a new one would. There's another, larger but not as well-kept one still at the shop, for less money. Hmmm.......
