Description

I just inherited a property and there was a metal hoosier cabinet in it. I am curious what something like this would be worth. Any help would be appreciated. Other than needing a new paint job, it's in good condition.

Hoosiers were hot items during the 1980's- 90's, but are now not near as sought after. They peaked in value for a really good one in natural oak finish in perfect condition at about $1800.00, the painted variety from the late 1920's were not near as sought after. Today a painted or metal Hoosiers at auction might bring $300.00 on a good day.

Hi
That is a beautiful piece.
I work in a furniture/ consignment store, and I have seen the ones we have go for $350-$425
These were also the white painted ones
