This is an aftermarket upgrade part sold by makers like Mathieson and Preston. It was advertised in the 1909 Preston catalog as a "Smoothing plane front". It would be attached to the sole of a smooth plane to resist wear. I've seen examples where it was used to implement a make-do adjustable mouth plane in the past. This one is in good, usable condition $10

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not an expert on the less common patented planes. This assembly appears to have come from a Standard Tool Co Rust patent block plane. The blade is clearly marked Unionville. There is a lot of fragile cast iron here, all complete and undamaged. I have to imagine that there is someone out there who needs this part to complete a plane, though it could be several decades before it sells. It will be here waiting for you. $25
