Leonard Bailey (1825-05-08 in Hollis, New Hampshire - 1905-02-05 in New York City) was a toolmaker/inventor from Massachusetts, USA, who in the mid-to-late nineteenth century patented several features of woodworking equipment. Most prominent of those patents were the planes manufactured by the Stanley Rule & Level Co. (now Stanley Works) of New Britain, Connecticut.[1]
Commonly known as Stanley/Bailey planes, these planes were prized by woodworkers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and remain popular by today's wood craftsman. A type study of his patented planes and the rest of the Stanley line may be found at Patrick Leach's "Blood and Gore".[2]
Bailey's design ideas are still utilized by Stanley and other plane manufacturers day.
What is a bailey and a barbican?
A bailey is an enclosed courtyard typically found in medieval castles, often surrounded by defensive walls and used for various activities, including housing troops and livestock. A barbican, on the other hand, is a fortified outpost or gateway situated before the main entrance of a castle or city, designed to provide an additional layer of defense against attackers. Together, these structures played crucial roles in the fortification and security of medieval strongholds.

Where can you get an appraisal of your 1917 Chicago Portrait company picture?
You are looking for a personal property appraiser, preferably one whose subspecialty is fine arts, photography, or antiques. There are two national societies which accredit personal property appraisers, the American Society of Appraisers (http://www.appraisers.org/) and the Appraisers Association of America (http://www.appraisersassoc.org/). Their members have passed educational, ethical, and experience requirements that qualify them as professionals. Of course, they don't work for free. If you're looking for a free or lost cost appraisal that's accurate, don't look online, but instead look for a local appraisal clinic at a fair, charity fund raiser, or a show (antiques, crafts, etc.). If you think the picture might be really valuable, consider taking it to an auction dealer, such as Christie's or Sotheby's, who will give a free opinion of value.
