<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 646309, member: 6444"]Can we see the back and underneath with the feet and one of the sides?? Are the corners dovetailed? The top and bottom look like two butted pieces of wood and not a single board - is that correct? It actually doesn't look period Penn (late 1700's to 1830) to me, but later. I could be wrong, but it just doesn't look right to me. If it *is* original paint and construction, maybe a scandinavian import from later in the 1800's or possibly even more recent? We haven't seen enough to say for sure, but I have questions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
