I believe this is a dental cabinet. I recognize the name but can't place it ! By the Chicago - New York locations I would place it in the 20's or 30's. Might have even been for a barber ( I might have had a barber chair that was a Paidar...) YES !! Our barber chair was from Chicago, 1930's.
Does anyone know anyone who may be able to tell me what this might be worth? I'm having difficulty finding any information on this piece.
Thank you!
Would you be intrested in selling it?
Possibly, do you have a number in mind?
Can you break it down to ship it? Where is the item located at? What kind of price do you have in mind? I hate to price someone else's stuff.....but thinking around $200
Would love to talk more about the station....I have collected this stuff for awhile. If you like you can contact me at twowolves12 at yahooooo
