Re: Mission Desk from Old Mill

This is actually a Federal Revival Style desk, most were made during the first quarter of the 20th century , though they were popular until the Great Depression. Values for them vary by size and condition, at auction comparable desks sell in the $200.00- $400.00 range.

Re: Mission Desk from Old Mill

Thanks for your help Lovejoy ! Now I can ask a fair price.

I may be able to use it as a boat if it continues flooding here (Atlanta). Have a good one !
