A unique "Presentation" d/t steel mitre/rebate plane by NORRIS London measuring 13 1/2" x 2 1/4" with figured rosewood infill and adjustable handle, previously sold in Tony Murland's 2006 auction Lot 496 with the following description (which would be difficult to improve on!) In June 1941 an 18yr old apprentice cabinetmaker Mr L.F.Gillett of Stratford-on-Avon won first prize in the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers (A.S.W.) annual competition. The prize was a steel mitre plane. The A.S.W. had commissioned the Norris factory to produce a totally unique plane. Norris exceeded themselves in this challenge and the result is an amazing, adjustable handled, rebating mitre plane marked NORRIS London Patent Adjustable. A silver plaque on the front of the plane is inscribed A.S.W. Apprentice Competition 1st Prize Bro. L.F.Gillett Stratford-on Avon 1941 The plane also exhibits two other features unique to previous Norris planes i.e. the combined handle and wedge is removed by loosening a brass knob, there is then the facility to adjust the handle laterally with a screw on the underside of the wedge. The handle can also be tilted by adjusting a screw at the base of the handle. A similar Norris plane was sold in our Catalogue No 52 Sept 2008 Lot 1075 for £16,000 These were the only two planes of this type produced by Thomas Norris F
