Description
See above. I have no photos because I did not buy it. If I can a favorable response tonight, I'll purchase it in the morning. It's 30 mi from home and I can't find anything even similar on the interenet.

History
This is an open front pie safe in a thrift store for $60.00. It has at least 4 shelves about 8 " high and each shelf has a wooden holder for an individual pie. Inside the wooden pie holders are Baker's brand pie tins (very old). The front is open like it may have rested on top of a cupboard or table and I thinkit may have been commercial because of the little pie holders. I'm wondering if it would be worth enough to pay the $60.00 and re-sell it for a good profit? Thanks, Norma
