273720 Christian Gagneraud <chgans@g...> 2021‑05‑17 Stanley 55 cutter boxes
Galoots,

I was looking at an auction for a 55 with only a few cutters missing,
as I would like to get a full set of cutters.
Apparently the set of cutters have changed over time.
Mine came in a wooden box, I believe it is from the 1920's.
I can't tell when the one for sale was manufactured, but the 4 boxes
of cutters have a different set.
Is anyone aware of this? Any information on that?
Compared to mine, extra blades are 2 bevels (40, 41), 2 match cutters.

On the side note, there exists a metal box as well (I met a guy who
wanted to sell a pristine one, complete, for 500$!) , and a cardboard
box.

Chris
