  • Vintage - Original
  • Unknown Dating
  • This held files from Lamson & Goodnow dated 1932
  • Overall size ~24x14x12 1/2" - designed for letter-sized file folders
  • Functions decently smooth - see photos for details of cosmetics
  • Rollers roll and stopper stops
  • NOTE: Color... monitors and lighting make a huge difference, these are a fairly deep warm brown color
  • This is so cool! What a find! You could have so many new uses for this old wooden box
  • OLD WOOD - the photo is of the item I am listing; that said, due to changes in humidity and further handling there is a POSSIBILITY joins or even grain may 'pop' between now and when you get the item -- every effort is made to ensure safe transit, and should I notice any change from my own storage and handling from the time-of-listing to your purchase, I will let you know before I ship to ensure things are still agreeable
  • I perform minimal cleaning - to reduce damage and because many wish to do things their own way.
    • I have first used a vacuum brush attachment to remove thickest layer of dirt
    • I then use a damp (very lightly dampened) cloth to remove the finer layers of dust
    • Lastly, I use a cloth permeated with Murphy's Oil Soap to give items a bit of beauty and protection while in my care
    • I DO NOT get every nook & cranny - for the utmost cleaning effort, you will need to be armed with some cotton swabs and a bit of yarn (for flossing areas) and take care to not dislodge glue joints or fragile bits
    • My price reflects the work needed to catalog-list-store-retrieve-ship the item; if I spent too much time cleaning and restoring items, the price would increase significantly.
