I bought this Fulton-badged plane many years ago at an antique store, and for most of the time since, it's sat in a drawer unused. Although I can't remember what I paid for it, I have no doubt I paid more than it's worth. C'est la vie. Once I got it out of the drawer and fiddled with it some, it didn't take much effort to make it work like a pretty good user.

This plane is about the same length as my modern-day Stanley No. 4 but narrower. The iron is 1-3/4" wide.

I know Fulton was one of Sears, Roebuck & Co.'s brands during its heyday, and that Sargent made most of the Fulton-badged planes, but that Millers Falls made some as well. The only marking on the body of the plane is MADE IN USA under the depth adjustment knob. The marking on the iron didn't help, as it was stamped Stanley. That iron was used up, so I put a Hock in the plane.

Here are some photos of the underside of the lever cap, the frog, and the sole. Perhaps someone can offer an idea who the real maker of this plane was.
