Could anybody tell me something about this foldable table?


On the bottom of the table there is a small paper label that reads:

A "CUSHMAN PRODUCT"
BENNINGTON VERMONT

Looks like a desk to me. It looks like it might have a drawer that's missing? Perhaps the little space I'm looking at was always just a shelf.

My guess is that what you have there is known as a folding "bureau d'enfant" (folding childs' desk) .

Are there any inscriptions under the seat/anywhere on your item , Coach ?

My guess: Looks like a 1930s telephone table and bench. The phone book would be placed in the open table "drawer" and mail and newspapers would go in the top magazine rack. Interesting design.

H.T. Cushman Co. , Vermont .

Prob. an item from 1930's ...

You can email a Mr. John M. Gertz , and possibly get detailed info on your piece & it's value - jmgertz@comcast.net

Agree with Belaire on the telephone table and open cubby/shelf.

Let us know!
