The innovation of this plane, patented by Henry Price of New York, NY, in 1879, was a stepped frog base that allowed the blade to be set at different angles. It isn't listed in PTAMPIA I or II, and was unknown until one turned up about 10 years ago and was pictured in Roger Smith's 2010 calendar. A handful have been found since then, and this example has a 9" sole with laminated tote and knob, the frog and brass lever cap resemble the Bailey design, with a Stanley 1892 patent date cutter. The tote has several reglued splits and chips from end. Knob has moderate wear. Metal oxidized with some light pitting. From the collection of Harold Unruh.

James Simons' 1868 patent was for a cobbler's shave, and that's where it's usually found. However, there are at least a handful of examples of it being adapted to a bench plane.

In the final iteration of his improved version of the Phillips patent plow, Matthias Mayo replaced the original pinstriping with a coat of gold paint, cast the four letters of his name into the heads of the locking screws, and cast "The Boss Plane" in the side. This example has some light surface corrosion and the gold paint is dull and about 50%. Includes one original cutter. Heads of the locking screws are worn, particularly the Y and O.

Louis Rodier's patent was for his faucet-handle adjustment mechanism, intended to simultaneously regulate the set of the cutter and the width of the mouth, but his planes (manufactured by the Laflin Manufacturing Co.) are best known for their corrugated sides and the serpentine grooves cast into the sole that have earned them the nickname of the "squiggly plane."
