On the way back from camping we stopped at an old service station that had a sign saying Antiques, mostly old trucks but in the office he had some old tools. One of the tools neither he nor I had any idea what it was,but it was in good shape though. On it was No88 below that M.F.Co. Millers Falls Mass . He wanted $12, I offered $10 and got it. Looking it up, it's a Perfection Jointer Guage. It clamps on the side of a plane and is adjustable for angles.
The '54 Dodge pickup I left behind.

That fine for you young guys to say.
The 54? is very handsome model, it sat between a late 30s 1ton dually stake side and a 57 panel. All Dodges, is there any other brand? It's going to take me another 67 years to complete the projects I have on the go, besides the wife was with me.

In an attempt to end the suspense, here's a photo of the jointer gauge the OP referenced (courtesy Patrick Leach's monthly tool list)
