• All of the features of the previous, except:
• A total redesign of the frog, where it became smaller and is held to the bottom casting by a vertical rib between the sides of the casting. This was a short-lived production, and is practically identical to the "Victor" planes Bailey later produced. This new design is found on sizes #3-#8, but the frog is of a #3 size for all planes. This was probably an attempt to make interchangable parts for most of the bench planes, instead of having a frog sized for each size of plane. A lot of these planes are broken about the vertical rib, so it was a weak design that was soon dropped.
• "STANLEY RULE" (in an arc) "& LEVEL Co." is now stamped on the iron. The cap iron still has the logo of Type 1 stamped into it.
• The brass adjusting nut in now recessed, with the patent stuff stamped inside.
• The back of the lever cap is recessed.
• Plane number no longer incised into back of lever cap or underside of frog.
