Hutch w/Skeleton Key, approx. age/value?
« on: July 09, 2012, 12:32:03 pm »
My Step Dad inherited this hutch from his father quite a few years ago, he is downsizing and was wondering how much it is worth.

Thank you in advance!

That looks to be what is called "Depression Era" furniture.

Even though stuff from that era is common, the good thing about them is that they are usually made of 100% wood and hardwood veneers, thus still beating the pants off of  just about anything you'd buy today.
