About Bailey block planes
Leonard Bailey was an American planemaker whose mid-19th-century Boston work, including the vertical post and early cast-iron bench planes, set the pattern Stanley later built its line on; after parting with Stanley he produced the Victor and Defiance planes. The listings span that whole career, from Boston jointers with banjo springs to Woonsocket Defiance block planes and Victor combination planes. Early Boston types, especially type one examples with original frog screws and springs intact, and the Victor No. 14 combination plane with its full cutter set, sit well above the plainer Defiance block planes. Intact japanning, crisp casting marks and legible patent dates raise value; replaced irons, cracked castings and missing adjusters cut it.
