We usually don’t like talking about how rare a tool is, but sometimes we have to make an exception. This 90A is one of those times.
The 90A is a unicorn in the Stanley plane world. One of the rarest planes Stanley every made. Who knows for sure, but it seems there are maybe a couple dozen of these left in the world.
This one is in excellent condition with about 85% nickel plating and all the right parts and markings. 90A engraved on the depth adjuster knob and on the original iron. As with most super rare planes, there are a couple issues, though we look at them as scars of use that reflect the reality that nothing’s perfect and this tool was used—as it was supposed to be. First, there are two hairline through-cracks on the narrow front right vertical part of the body that has not been stabilized or tampered with. Second, a prior owner, one “Reger” also signed it on the right side. See photos.
If you want the Stanley rarities in your collection, this is a grab-it-when-you-can tool. And we don’t say that often.
Ships to you packed ultra-protected and insured just in case.
