I have been gifted a 17" Mathieson jointer. From photos I have been able to find it appears as though the closed handle has been broken and replaced with an open handle. There is a crack/chip on the sole behind the mouth.
The toe is stamped with a crescent moon and a star and Mathieson and sons. The heel is stamped 2 1/8 (cutter width). The chip breaker appears to be stamped "STEEL". There is a redish decal on the top front. I think it reads Mathieson. I can't see any markings on the iron.
I don't want to use it. Probably on display somewhere.
Is there somewhere to date these planes. What do I need to do to make it "displayable", if anything.
