Item Details

Description

Hello, I have a desk that belonged to my great-grandfather that was passed on to me, and I'm selling it for local pickup in San Antonio, TX. It is a Derby S-curve roll top; the upper lock plate says "Tufts Desk, New York." I found an old ad for Tufts online that has a drawing of the actual model I have. Condition: it has not been restored. There is wear on the desk top, pullouts, and drawer fronts. The rolltop handle bar needs to be reattached to the rolltop (glue and canvas/tambour). Three of the swing-out hinges are not original. The bottom piece of the lock is missing. The side, knee-hole, and Back panels are in good shape. It comes apart for transport; some of the screws that hold it together are not original. Various nicks and scratches. Have original wheels/coasters for bottom. Can send more pics on request, or come see it if you're in San Antonio or Boerne.
