Description

We have had this cabinet for about 30 years. When purchased we were told that it was made in the late 1890's. I cannot find any maker's mark anywhere. There are stencils on various parts of the cabinet such as the back, drawer bottoms, and inside in various places. These stencils read "H C Hansen, Holstein IA" and "J Roberts, Sterling Nebraska". I assume these were packing crates that were used to construct the piece. It is 92" high and 38 1/2" wide. I would much appreciate any info anyone might have on the manufacturer of the piece and approximate value.

Thanks!
