    here's one that placed local to me, it's been running for 5 to 6 weeks now each week they relist to stay on top..... The norm here would be 125 $ for a hand crank...

    I can zoom in 400% and see it missing alot of the beds decals and the serail number ,, one letter and 7 numbers, I can't make out what they are ,,,

    I'm guess it's a 128.. today I looked up the 128 I got mine is G 7614214 1919, The add on mine said 1908 .

    in checking number I found anything with 7 numbers was from aroung 1905 /6 to early 20's.

    so this one is starting have scam written all over it ..I mean come on.. they want to sell it ,, 350$,, but email them and the deal is off , get real.. some how I don't think they have a computer. maybe not..

    Looks like it starts with J then maybe a 4 in the serial number.

    Still overpriced.

    These do expire on CL or the person that posted figures out it is a lost cause so they remove the post...

    It is an odd cabinet. Sort of a clone of a treadle base and parlor cabinet. Is the twelve step program working?

    I'm wondering about that w/g's base also,, it must be missing it's side pieces, otherwise whats which the drop Door ...

    he has repainted the stand, the hean looks very clean,, But the tops colors don't match. I was thinking parlor also, but there is spacing to fit drawers on each side. ??
