Is there any market for comodes?
« on: July 14, 2008, 09:11:41 pm »
Dates somewhere around 1900 - 1910.  The provenance on this piece places it on the Peter Poor farm near Frankfort, KS.  Story goes Mr. Poor was very active in the Republican party and Teddy Roosevelt stayed on the farm for a short time.  Who knows if he used it.  Anyway, it's made of solid oak.  Not real fancy but I've seen much plainer examples.  Is there any kind of a market for these?

Hello,

For comodes? I don't think you can get it from an online shopping stores....

I am sure there is a Historical Society somewhere that would be interested in such an item for the renovated "home" of their Honored Citizen.

The furnishings of a circa 1900 - 1910 home would not be complete without one of them.
