It was listed by Carse Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Carse Antiques has dated this piece to the 1910s.
The plane has the earliest 1913 patent adjuster. The rosewood infill is in pretty decent condition with no issues and most the original finish. The metal has been slightly over zealously cleaned in the past thus the top chamfered edges are a wee bit rounded off. This doesn't effect the use of the plane at all especially bearing in mind it is now over 100 years old. Really just a pretty decent user example just itching to be put back to work. These early 1913 ones are hard to find now in reasonable condition. I personally would be over-joyed to have and use this plane myself if I didn't already have one.
