What a unique look into the past . This wood writing desk is complete with fountain pen tips and letters to the owner dating from 1868 thru 1898. The owner seems to have been a Mrs. Mary Smith who lived on W 8th Street in Cincinnati, Ohio at the time. There are lots of letters some addressed to her in Massachusettes and New York as well as those in Cincinnati. Wouldn't it be great to return this piece to a member of her family! The piece is in good condition, it does show some wear. The piece measures 14" by 9 1/2". See Photos
