Description
I will add a picture when I take one. I will sell the table for the right price. I think a collector would have better use for it than I do, and would keep it up better.

History
I bought this item when I asked the antique dealer in a small town called Cherry Arizona (the only building in the town at that time) for projects that he is working on but did not want to finish (in 1985). I am somewhat of a wood worker (but not very good) and mostly all of the pieces were there except for one small piece under the table that hold the slide for the drawer in the back I had to fabricate out of oak..
