Synopsis
This new edition of the classic reference British Planemakers from 1700 has been completely rewritten, with over 200 pages of new information. Online research tools haven enabled much greater insight into family connections of planemakers, family and business continuities, and the discovery of previously unknown planemakers. Confirmation that planemakers were working in the late 1600s, in fact, inspired the new edition's title, Goodman's British Planemakers. The biographic directory covers more than 2400 planemakers and includes 2250 maker's mark illustrations. Like its predecessors, the new edition traces the development of British planemaking, but far more extensively, now confirming that planemakers moved around the country to a much greater extent than previously realized, and identifying several new family planemaking dynasties. The book includes chapters on the planemaking trade and its practices, descriptions and illustrations of the many types of planes and their evolution, and provincial planemaking, as well as sections on apprentice records, trade marks, and a complete index. An absolutely invaluable reference., This new edition of the classic reference British Planemakers from 1700 has been completely rewritten, with over 200 pages of new information. Online research tools haven enabled much greater insight into family connections of planemakers, family and business continuities, and the discovery of previously unknown planemakers.

Reviews
The collecting and study of old woodworking planes is one of those abstruse subjects that are incomprehensible to the outsider, but followed passionately by its practitioners. One reason is that it has been so well served by specialist publications, pioneered by W.A. Goodman in his first British Planemakers from 1700 as long ago as 1968. The interest of collectors prompted the book, and the book (and its successors) have prompted the further interest of collectors ever since. How many collecting subjects are there in which you can pick up for a pound or two, at a boot fair or a country auction, an 18th-century artefact with a maker's mark, whose date and place of origin can so easily be checked in British Planemakers? And there is always the possibility that a box of scruffy-looking old tools may contain a really early plane - one by Robert Hemings or Francis Purdew, perhaps. The seasoned collector, on finding such a plane, will rush home to consult British Planemakers, to see how the new acquisition fits in with the known details (is it an early or late name stamp, or perhaps a previously unrecorded one?). The tyro may not realise that he has discovered a 'gem', until Planemakers reveals all. Even if Planemakers shows that a plane is actually quite common, the information provided about the maker and his family and trade connections (or hers - some plane-making businesses were carried on by widows) will be fascinating. Goodman's second edition was greatly enlarged, and the third edition, by Mark and Jane Rees, advanced the subject by several stages. This new version takes us even further, and includes makers who were in business before 1700. That date has accordingly been removed from the title. This is no minor revision; one of several statistics thoughtfully provided by the author is that there are 2417 planemakers who have now been identified (there were 1325 in the third edition). Thus a collector armed with the new edition will have 1,092 more names to look out for. This is a book no plane collector, tyro or seasoned, can be without.

- c***a (121)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThe seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!
- m***4 (1614)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaLeaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustrationStreet Fighter II - Guile (Player 2) Figure - 6 Inch (#365698737394)
- 2***0 (4)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.
