This lot includes a drop-front secretary. From top to bottom, the secretary shows a large flip-down door, and four large storage drawers. When you open the main compartment, you will expose the stationary organizer - featuring; ten various small drawers, and nine cubbies. The drawers are finished with two decorative brass drop-handles each, with matching brass escutcheon key plates in the center. The piece is constructed of pine or basswood, and stained with a rich mahogany colored finish. The piece is believed to originate from the early 1900's, and shows fair condition. There is scattered wear on the piece from use, a broken chipped escutcheon on the main drop-door, missing handles on some of the small drawers, and one missing drop handle. There is no key present. The secretary measures 39 1/2" wide, 20 1/2" deep, and 42 3/4" tall.
