Buyer's premium:

A collection of ten vintage woodworking tools and measuring instruments, primarily constructed of wood and steel. The group includes two tapered wooden spirit levels, one marked J. H. Rabone & Sons Birmingham Made in England and Warranted No. 623 Correct. The second level is marked Beddore Cheffman / AAA. The collection also features five wood-handled steel chisels or gouges of various sizes and profiles, and three wooden measuring rules. One folding rule is visibly marked HOLMES MCDOUGALL. The tools exhibit characteristics consistent with vintage manufacture, reflecting the style of makers such as Rabone. An unrelated modern metric ruler and a decorative metal container decorated with Winnie the Pooh artwork are present in the lot but are not considered part of the primary collection of tools.
