    I recently bought this large desk at an auction. I'm trying to find out more about this piece. We love it, but I like the history of things. The dimensions are 29" (D) x 71" (W) x 30" (H). It is large. I'm assuming its a writing desk because of the front drawer, but it's the size of many tables. I also assume it's pretty old by looking at the paper lining the drawer. Any information is greatly appreciated!! Thank you, Chris

      Could we please see the sides of the drawer, and the bottom of the drawer. Thanks very much.

      From what I see-- it appears to be mid to late 20th century.

      Lap joint on the drawer and brand mark country of origin give it away.
