B56-060. COMBINATION SQUARE AND BEVEL. Wm. McNiece Patent. This try square with a sliding T-bevel in the handle, made by Philadelphia sawmaker William McNiece, turns up occasionally and is always marked "patent applied for." McNiece did receive an 1859 patent (his first) for a bevel to be attached to a saw blade, but it isn't known if this is the patent referred to. 7" rosewood brass lined handle, 10" unruled blade, 11" bevel blade. Stamp is faint but legible. Otherwise very clean. A very rare bevel from the Don Rosebrook collection. Good+ 250 - 450 **ALL ABSENTEE BIDS MUST BE RECEIVED BY END OF DAY FRIDAY JUNE 26, 2020.
