    I bought this Lane cedar chest off Facebook Marketplace last week because I've always wanted one and this is in terrific shape. I have been able to decode the serial number and determine that it was manufactured in August 1936, which surprised me given its condition. But I cannot find this style, either by number or photo, anywhere. I did read an article that indicated a particular Lane "blanket style" chest from the 1930s is rare. So I thought I better check into this further before I decide on its location and use. If anyone knows any more about this particular item, I would love to hear about it.
