"New" Governor Winthrop Desk

[organic_smallhome]

Although I've since learned, in my research, that Governor Winthrop never really owned a desk like this. Anyway, it's a great size and has given us more storage (which we desperately need in this little house), and is solid cherry (mfg. by Maddox). Probably, I'm guessing, about 50 years old. I was thrilled to find it, since I've only ever seen these desks in mahogany and maple. Also, I like the flat front (as opposed to the usual serpentine) and the feet (not too ornate). It cost $250, which I'm thinking is a pretty good deal, considering the shape it's in. In any case, thought I'd post just for fun.
