<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 85138, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> I agree from a man's dresser from the turn of the century. Since it is not a fine antique, I would make the mirror useable. I would take the mirror out pour some straight bleach on the back of it and scape it with a razor blade. When all the silver is gone, give it a good wash. Then buy a thin mirror the same size and back to the glass. That way you have a useable piece. It is not a fine antique piece and if it turned out to be you still have the valuable glass and could have it resilvered. </p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
