I was thinking Pennsylvania because of a similar looking folk art piece on 1st Dibs...I don't remember what it was now. It is missing a piece on the side, and there are 3 missing dowels on the railing. wear to the black paint, but what's left is stable. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
