<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 691888, member: 6444"]Um, James, I own an authentic Pennsylvania chest in original paint from late 18th early 19th century, so I actually do know what I’m talking about. It isn’t dated so isn’t worth huge money, but it has nice early tulip decoration so I’m quite happy with it. I have several pieces in early paint, this is just one. I was looking at it and comparing to OPs. And yes, I do know construction details since it’s right in front of me. I’ll note you never answered my question about the incorrect construction details on the OPs chest.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don’t know why you want to pretend to be the only person on this forum who knows anything about early furniture, there is plenty of old furniture out there.

You know early furniture, that is clear. But you aren’t perfect, and it would be good if you would consider other points of view because sometimes they are right.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
