Davis
& Cook 24" Aluminum Level This unusual
level is in very nice condition. The rings around the adjustable vials
have all the important info giving the Manufacturer as Davis & Cook of Watertown
N.Y. and the Patent date of Oct 20th 1903. This was one of the first tools
or levels that was produced from Aluminum and is quite unusual for this and
it's unique design and decorative finish. Seldom seen and rarely offered
for sale, it is a good one! Good+

Stratton
Brothers 6" Machinist Level
This is a rare example of a very hard to
find level that Stratton Brothers produced during their heyday in the late 19th
century. The bubble is good and appear to be original. There is
some nickel loss as can be seen in the Pic, but the design is still sharp and
nice. Only the 3rd one I have ever seen.
Good+ ........ $395.00 SOLD!
Davis
Level & Tool Co. Marked #37 1/2 Pocket Level
This level is clearly marked with both
the size and the Davis L. T. & Co. round logo. It is in super condition
even though there is not a whole lot of japanning left. Like the unmarked
example below this one measures 3 1/2" long.
Good+ ....... $ 225.00 SOLD
C.
E. Jennings 12" Cast Iron Level
This interesting and unusual level is nearly as graphic as those made under
the Davis Patent, and well could have been made by them for Jennings.
This example still sports approx. 80% or so of it black japanned finish.
The bubbles are all good and appear to be original. There is no damage
to the webbing, or chips at the ends or corners as is often the case.
There is one small casting flaw in the top rail, but this is factory.
An interesting note about this level is that it appears that the main vial is
adjustable as there are 4 screws at the bottom under the main vial, and there
is a cradle affair that this vial sets in. I would imagine that
this indicates an adjustable feature that the more typical Davis levels lack.
Very Good........$245.00
SOLD
Wm.
T. Nicholson 1860 Patent #13 Cast Iron Level
This
level is in nice condition and although it shows considerable wear and loss
of finish it is none the less a hard level to find. With a careful cleaning
it will be ready to take its place with the rest of your rare Stanley pieces.
The main vial may have been replaced and the plumb is good and original.
This style level has a peep hole in the base for overhead work.
Good ..............$125.00 SOLD
Keen Kutter KK # K624 Cast Iron 24" Level Cast iron levels by Keen Kutter are very difficult to find, and to find one in this condition is even harder. Nearly all the black japanning is present. There is no rust or pitting, and even the nickel on the vials is very nice. There are no casting problems, chips or cracks. It is just a well-made level in super condition from a very collectible maker. Excellent .....$225.00 SOLD
