    Whatever it is i needed it for some reason.
    It stands 21" tall x 16" wide x 8" deep
    The openings are 14 1/2" wide. seemed kind of large for magazines?
    Any thoughts on age, type of wood, and usefulness would be appreciated.
    I'm going to clean it up and probably keep it for a while.

    Sure you needed it. :):):) I tell myself the same thing. The grain on the back is very nice.

    Well at first i wanted it, Then i put it back. a few minutes later i realized I needed it.
    I think the flowers are hand painted. But crazed badly. The rest will clean up easy.

    The handle at the top is very nice, so you can move it from place to place.

    That's sweet. Magazines used to be quite a bit larger than they are now.

    We were thinking pretty close this time Brad. I was thinking slightly older. Mid 40's. And either birch or maple. I can't wait to get it cleaned up.
