Your secretary desk dates

Your secretary desk dates from the second quarter of the 20th Century and is in a form often called " Colonial Revival", after the fact they copy design motifs of American Colonial pieces made from 1620-1780. These were made in huge numbers in furniture factories that centered around Grand Rapids Michigan. Values for them today depend on conditionm and quality of construction.

Comparable examples to yours in " as is" condition they often sell for about $500.00 .
