Arts & Crafts, pre 50's, 1 piece secretary

By mogle, 3 May, 2018
Description

Quarter sawn oak, arts & crafts/mission style, 1 piece drop front desk. Glass doored bookcase on top, lots of cubbies inside, 2 drawers below. Open area above bottom shelf. 2 keys. Grandma refinished this in 1951, and kicked herself that she dripped on the drop front. It always sat in the corner of the dining room and was well used. I even sat and colored at it when I was little.

The desk is 57.5 tall, with the flange in the back another 2.25 in. It's 16" at it's deepest.

As you can see, the back is clearly marked Standard Furniture, with the #241, BUT.....I can't find a thing about it anywhere.
