<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 393477, member: 5066"]Jeff, I think you are comparing apples to oranges here, one is 17th century construction with side hung drawers, the other is 1st half 18th century construction. Notice how thick drawer runner/drawer side is in OP drawer pic, not quite as thick as side hung but leaning that way. The bottoms of both drawers are nailed on usually and both have a single dovetail.</p><p>Additionally, 1 is probably english (OP) the other is for sure american. Naturally, in 1690 Boston it was probably an english immigrant, lol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
