<p>[QUOTE="rknarr2, post: 581540, member: 9614"]I did know that the S type was more desireable than C type. My dad redid one for an owner of a firestone shop. However, it and the building burnt down and there was a picture of the firemen pushing my mom's wagoneer full of gas out of the bay as the fire was going on behind them shown in the newspaper. I am not saying your wrong because you are the wiser one but I was really surprised that you guess this would be from the later 20th century. I will try to get those pictures for validation from the later 20th century. I just do not know about the back of the desk. The secondary woods inside the drawer and whether or not the dove tails are hand made or not might help with at least a general location like made in the eastern part of the U.S. and time period. That is what I saw on watching Antique Road show. Hopefully there will be other markings, too. Rob[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
