Civil War Field Operating Table

Description

Was told it was a Civil War field operating table, by my parents (now gone).  We upholstered and used as a reading lounge, for many years.  Adjusts to hundreds of different positions, easily.  Has pinstriping and bakelite-like wheels.  Might be a mobile dentist's chair.
