In the 1920s, fresh off of lucrative World War 1 military contracts, the legendary Winchester Repeating Arms Co. sought to diversify from a manufacturer of firearms and ammunition to a broad-based gun, hardware, and sporting goods operation. This Antique 1920s Winchester Model W5 Woodworking Smoothing Plane is in Very Good Condition, with only some scattered scratching, pitting, spot patina, and age wear evident. Most interestingly, it bears its maker, “WINCHESTER”, embossed in red at the lower front, along with the model designation, “W5”, embossed in black at the bottom front, sports all of the original steel, brass, and varnished walnut hardware throughout, and is stamped “WINCHESTER / TRADE MARK / MADE IN U.S.A” at the upper front. It measures 13 1/2” x 5 1/2” x 2 1/2”, and is a fine example of a rare, original Antique 1920s Winchester Model W5 Woodworking Smoothing Plane.
