Today was the Brown Auction Service Fall 2019 Dealer Sale held at the Radisson in Camp Hill PA. The storms from the day before left a lot of run off on the roads and a steady and heavy wind for most of the ride, both going and coming back. There was good turnout of both dealers and buyers. Saw a few of the familiar faces, including Tom Dugan, Bill Weber, the elusive Tony Z, and Walt and Mary Henderson who had a table there. Picture of the floor action. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019f1.JPG Lots and lots of tools to look at. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019f2.JPG View of the auction area which is happening tomorrow. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019f3.JPG Pickings were fairly good. At the top are a curved and straight blade spoke shaves, a pair of curved tavisher blades, a 6 inch bevel square, a gouge, some Starrett calipers and dividers, a pair of Starrett combination square center heads, a pair of leather punches, a Stanley brad awl, small turnscrew, and a solid brass pocket level. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019t1.JPG There is a screw lock rosewood mortising gage, a rosewood panel marking gage, blacksmith straight peen hammer, a good pair of blacksmith tongs, an S S Barry complex molding plane, a pair of 1/8" chisels, a 4" Stanley No. 12 Type 1 square, and a few brace bits to add to the pile. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019t2.JPG All in all it was good run.

Snuck in and out in full stealth mode! Moments after chatting with Tony, I came across a Washita, about 9" X 2-1/2" X 1", no case, but a gloatable cost of $5.00! I'll see you all at PATINA in March, but you won't see me! Tony Z. -----Original Message----- From: OldTools |

Tony, In the past I've waited to see you list things and sometimes the tools don't make it to your email. So.... I'm interested in the hammer and the tongs. How much? Troy Livingston 8104 Alderman Rd. Melrose, FL 32666 |

Bud Brown's show and auction was a fun time, yet again. As usual, lots of laughing and scratching with old friends. Lots to learn from the experts and other sellers. A big surprise was the display of three historic planes. The most famous of planes was there, the 1876 ebony and ivory plow plane by Sandusky, that sold for $114K a few years back. Also displayed was the Montgomery presentation plow ($65K recently) and the single arm plow by McMaster. Great to see these originals. I should have taken some pictures but didn't think of it. Tony got the back of the display in this picture. The table in the foreground, Sandusky on he left, Montgomery on the right, and the McMaster is hidden by the display. http://oldetoolshop.com/jointer/bffiles/2019/brownsfall2019f3.JPG I've been busy with other projects and didn't get into auction-mood as much as I could have. I won four nice lots. The first is a band-box new and complete Stanley #143, one of the last ones made, with a SW logo. http://billwebber.galootcentral.com/2948_img_1250.jpg Second lot was this pair of shrink rules. http://billwebber.galootcentral.com/2995_img_1297.jpg Third lot was a nice 30" Stanley brass-bound level It should fit nicely in the Hilton chest. It is a little newish for the chest but I haven't found anything better as yet. I neglected to grab the picture for that one. Last was this set of piano tuning tools. http://billwebber.galootcentral.com/3632_img_1884.jpg These go well with the last of my restored player pianos. The tools are from Hammacher Schlemmer except for the wire cutters which are Starrett. Lots of brass, nickel and exotic wood. Yum! Regards, Bill W.

I'm familiar with the history of the three planes, so I only glanced at the little historic blurb provided. I don't remember whether there were two or three owners names. I'm sure some of the other attendees were more observant than I. Bill W. Nottingham, PA Woodworkers visit me at http://billwebber.galootcentral.com/ |
