Free school-house desk

Post by KathyRose »

School-house desk from the 60's, solid wood painted brown with varnished oak top & drawer handles, 77"w x 35"d x 29"h. Free, but you need to pick it up at my mom's house in north Austin, near I-35 & E. Rundburg Lane.

No ma'am. Would you like it...? (or like to take a look?) :-)

I put it to Tom and Asaf at the Institution. We love it! We just need to figure out how to pick it up....

oh! BTW - the top is not solid oak, only trimmed in oak, but still a good, smooth varnished surface.

Ah - if it's for the Institution... I also have, in my garage, two plate glass mirrors, not framed, which were pulled off bathroom walls during a remodel: 48" x 33-3/8" and 48" x 54-7/8". (Had a third that found a home at City Theatre.)
