Vintage Masonite folding table

By Essexfish, 12 November, 2021
Description

Masonite folding bridge table (variously called a card or seeing table too). Measures 27x27” across and 28” high when opened flat. The image is a 1940s lithograph. I’ve found a few similar ones with varying prices for sale online but wonder if anyone knows a more specific or accurate value range.

Re: Vintage Masonite folding table

I think LoveJoy’s quote from an earlier post would be about the same for your table, under $75. I did find a few similar and one that was probably the exact same model on Liveauctioneers. It did not sell but opened for $30 with an estimate of $100 - $150 https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/75789107_antique-folding-card-table
Same artwork on a different type of folding table sold for $84 https://picclick.com/Vintage-Ornate-Victorian-Wooden-Wood-Folding-Card-…
Another different style same art work sold for $10 https://www.liveauctionworld.com/Vintage-Folding-Wooden-Card-Table_i254…
And this lady had one just like yours and decided to improve (or ruin) it https://www.attagirlsays.com/folding-game-table-makeover/
If I were buying one I’d want to spend no more than $25 and if I were selling one I’d start at $50 and see what happens.
