[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 1062484, member: 5066"]A Crosman paint decorated pine box is up for grabs at Skinner in a couple weeks, I expect there will be a lot of interest even though box is in terrible condition. Robert Crosman was a drum maker in Taunton Mass (1707-1799) who happens to hold the world record for a single piece of paint decorated American furniture. A 1729 chest of drawers that sold a few years ago for a staggering 3 million USD. There is just enough left of this box to attribute it to Crosman, there will probably be institutional interest on this one as there are only 22 Crosman pieces known, most in museums..
