Found this stuff in an antique store this week. From left, an unidentified little squirrel tail block plane, what I believe is a very early Excelsior style 9 1/2, then what I think is a Stanley 203 that needs a new knob and lever cap, and another 9 1/2 style block plane that has what looks like "P&O 1944 USA" on the side. Then there's a Yankee 41, an unidentified adjustable mouth spokeshave, and what looks to be some sort of spokeshave. Will ask for help identifying that one in another thread. Paid $86 for the whole lot, which I think is pretty good, given my limited knowledge of tool value.

The adjustable spokeshave. I like the decorative casting on this one, but as you can see, it needs a new blade, as this one is cracked.
