STANLEY "BAILEY" No. 5 C - TYPE 12 - VERY NICE!

Here is a very nice Stanley "Bailey" No. 5C plane, Type 12, first sweetheart type in great usable or collectable condition.  The original jappaning is around 80 to 85% and may have been touched up in spots by a previous Owner, but not refinished or repainted; all original.  Casting is in very nice shape, there are the few requisite "tool box" nicks, but nothing that detracts.  No cracks or throat damage.  The wood is nice and original, one little nick out of the tote on the very top side (see pictures) but nothing that really detracts.  The blade is almost full length, and is a later Type 15 or 16 replacement.  The lever cap is original and in great condition, no nicks or dings.  This is a very nice "user" Type 12 or could also find a place of honor in your "Stanley" collection.  Reserve is small to protect my investment. Buyer pays actual shipping costs via USPS Priority, and this will fit in a flat-rate box.  The wood box the plane sits on is not included. Please e-mail me with any questions.  Best of luck!
