I hope you are correct and i am sure @Lucille.b would be thrilled! :joyful:
Absolutely!
There is another pilgrim fragment coming to market, estimate is $50. missing it's bottom drawer & feet and of course the paint long gone....

Yep, they are bun feet indeed!
Neat, I am in Charlotte and didn't know that!
Yes, revival version of william & mary with other styles as well Me either! There we go! the leaf has been found!
lol, oh dear! A girl & her dog, nothing else is important!
Neat story! Love the pic with brother peering out the door thinking "SO WHAT???"
