After almost fifty years of collecting, it is time for me to let go and let others enjoy some of these things.Sorry, no returns nor refunds, so please look at the photos and ask questions before bidding. I generally check my email twice a day, in the morning and about 6pm, so please ask questions early and I’ll do my best to get you answers quickly.Local pickup only. This item is located in Annapolis, Maryland.Thanks for looking!Circa 1940s solid oak office desk. Top meas...ures 60” wide x34” deep x 30” tall. The top overhangs the base by about 1” on all sides. The drawers have dovetail joints, and one pull is missing (as shown). The top could use refinishing, but I leave that to the next owner. The top may be removed for moving, but the desk is heavy, so bring help to move. Great work surface and a lot of drawer space. The knee hole is 24.25 inches tall at the edge (25 inches tall at the center because of the curve in the drawer), 26.25 inches wide, and 31 inches deep. Also, the pull is missing from the deep file drawer, so one can still open the drawer using the top pull.I posted some photos of the drawer interiors, showing the drawer capacities and old ink stains inside. The period key is not original to the desk lock, but works if one aligns the tumblers correctly.
