The Cabinet








The finished top piece. I think I did a good job considering I hadn't a clue before I started. Now I just need to finish the base. This piece of furniture known as a Hoosier was manufactured by the Sellers company in Indiana, sometime in the late 1920's according to the ship date (November 1930) papers that were still stapled to the back. The closest I can date this from newspaper ads is 1927. The before pictures are the ones with the white and gray paint. (LOL) These are not the best pictures. I didn't think to take pictures when I acquired this piece of antique furniture.
