Description

This desk was given to my family when I was a little girl byanother family member that said their Grandmother used it in school. I have had it for 40 years. The top has been worn down so I put some wood grain contact paper on the top which has lasted all this time. It has a pull-out writer's tray on the left side that can be pushed back into the bottom of the desk out of sight.  There is also a small single pencil drawer that pulls out from in front of the desk if you were sitting in front of it. Inside there is a tray to hold the pencils and enough space to store a note pad of (or tablet) of paper. There are no markings on or under the desk anywhere that I can see. Can you identify the maker of this desk  and what it's value might be?
