    I really dont have much information to give.
    Boards are very wide 10" wide on top and probably 16" wide on side although a bit hard to tell.
    There are two long narrow storage boxes, the top one has a lid a d the bottom one sits under the top one (no need for lid). The top one is three compartments, the bottom one is two compartments.
    It came from my grandparents and judging by the oily smell and black residue I would guess it was a tool chest of some sort (at least for part of its life).
    Wondering where its from? how old it is? Maybe the company that made it. My grandfather grew up in British Columbia Canada, before that somewhere in the prairies, and his father would have come from England....but have no idea when this was purchased....could have come from a garage sale 4 years ago.
