Description

This Franklin Shockey solid cherry vanity and chair are in excellent condition. According to my parents, who purchased it new in 1960, they made a very limited number of these. They made their purchase from a high-end furniture store in Philadelphia, though I can't recall the name.

Packing slip attached to the bottom of the vanity has the following info:
