    Hello

    This came into my local thrift in Chicago and neither employees nor shoppers know what it is, so its a bit of a debate. Its wood, about 12 x 18" and folds with rubber feet.

    Thoughts are - a luggage stand, easel, frame of some sort...some think its Danish, some Japanese, others junk! If anybody recognizes its purpose Im also curious, its $10.

    Thanks
