    Not sure how to learn about these? The table surface is 23" x 18". When the top is folded vertically the whole thing stands 37.5" tall. The rest is maybe a rusted out painted black iron..? The height is adjustable. On the underside of the table someone had penciled 2907 and looks old

    My very first thought was for a hospital,but I can imagine that weighs a ton. Great looking piece,very industrial. Thats really "in" right now.

    You may right. This is a hospital table, supposedly from the 1930s. A bit narrower though. And appears to have been refinished.

    Looks very similar. Thanks! I found one on Pinterest that looked like it a little and it had small casters on the two outer ends where it L's. We have two boxes of maybe 200+ casters. Most with porcelain wheels. I'm guessing this wouldn't use the porcelain ones though...
