Today's Featured Tool Description
Benjamin, G./Avoca, N.Y. : Early Patent Brace. Pat. June 9, 1857. Elaborate Chuck. Length: 14.50 Inches. AN EARLY PATENT BRACE as patented by George Benjamin of Avoca, New York on June 9, 1857. This extremely rare American made wooden brace was prominently featured in Paul Kebabian's "American Woodworking Tools". It has a complex spring-action mechanical locking mechanism for the chuck that was the subject of the U.S. Patent. George Benjamin, born in 1828 in Suffolk County, New York, was listed as a carpenter, living in Hornellsville, New York with his wife, Hulda, and four children in the New York State Census for 1875. Interestingly, John D. Griswold, one of the witnesses who signed the patent application, was listed in regional directories as a "gun and locksmith" and he may have assisted in the construction of the complex mechanical locking mechanism used in this patented brace. We are delighted to feature this important patented American brace in this Avoca, New York auction, the home town of the inventor, George Benjamin. From the Dr. Ronald W. Pearson Collection. (GOOD+). This item was sold on July 30, 2011 for $2,800.00. jpg_file

Just Added to the Auctions
jpg_file Lot 397. A SPECTACULAR NICKEL PLATED AUTO ADJUSTING VISE by the Stephens Patented Vise Company of New York City. The U.S. Patent for this quick-adjust, lever-locking vise was issued on July 19, 1870 to Anson P. Stephens of Brooklyn, New York. The maker name and patent information are clearly marked on this 2" jaw width vise, which retains fully 95% of its original nickel plating. The last time we had one of these in this condition was at the Stanley Tool Collectors Convention held in Hartford/New Britain, Connecticut in 1993. Tools made at the advent of the use of nickel plating, which happened at about this time, generally had a poor affinity for the plating. Unlike nearly all other tools made at that time, this one retains all of its nickel plating and it is in top collector quality condition. As good as they get. Highly Recommended. (FINE).(750.00 - 1,500.00) Length: 5 Inches.
