[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 4407954, member: 51"]I was leaving the GW (on foot) and this small table was out back. Obviously the table has had heavy use, probably was in some kind of art studio, but honestly those paint splatters were part of the appeal in a weird way. Genuine use and then some! Trying to stay completely away from larger items, the table was the last thing I needed. I stood there kind of admiring it, when the GW employee says, "$1.99". So I'm still thinking, "last thing I need", when he says, "Tell you what, if you can come back for it in 30 minutes, it's free." It's actually the only time I've had a GW person offer something for free, so I got it. Now what did I get for free? I'm thinking this would look super cool in some setting or another and maybe could get $30 on Craigslist. The table is structurally sound. Would I call the bones of this an "antique kitchen side table"? Has a drawer and one of those pull out surfaces too.
