One of the best we have ever seen. Crisp mark. Plane has only a chip off the right side, otherwise would rate Fine. Francis NICHOLSON (circa 1683-1753) was the earliest documented plane maker in the USA, working in Wrentham, MA. When he died, he left most of his tools to his plane maker son, John. To his slave, plane maker Cesar CHELOR, he left tools, land, and his freedom.
