Wallpaper hangers would use this foldable, portable table to transport their supplies and apply paste to paper. Click for more pics: http://eclecticallyvinta...

Yes! I have one! It's perfect in a hall, in front of a window or acting as a "buffet table" for parties! Yours is fabulous!

Ohhhhhh E V - what an absolute jewel you have!!! HAPPY DANCE ? - I'll bet you did an out-and-out JIG!!!
@Theresa - LOL ; ~) I like your terminology - "seasoned enough". Oh but I am becoming so so so SEASONED!!! There is a saying my Dad used to use . . . only use your best imaginary "accent" - T00 SCHOON OLD, TOO LATE SCHMART!! I think of some of the things I didn't hold on to. . . . . .

isnt it crazy the connections that we realize as we get older...I could be in another state and randomly run into someone I know!

I just found one in my attic! It looks very similar to the one posted. Inside there are 2 straight edges (metal), a scale ruler (all 72" long), a tool for cutting the paper and 2 brushes for smoothing the paper (?) after it is installed. It has lovely patina and age on wood! I am interested in selling.
