Yep, it happens. Even if pulls are not original, its still a piece well worth a restoration effort. Was not impressed with the auction site, it says it accepts absentee bids but theres no link to click nor form to fill out that i could find. LOL @ my puter and i are in a fight. Yep, it happens.

I looked at the pulls cross-eyed myself and didn't mention those. I think the escutcheons are, however,original. Marc, good point. I looked at the pulls cross-eyed myself and didn’t mention those.

I disagree that this is the original hardware. The pulls do not correspond with the escutcheons and are also installed upside-down. I do agree that this piece has a lot going for it. -Marc Andrew- I apologise if this comment appears twice, my computer and I are in a fight. I disagree that this is the original hardware.

It has 3 things going for it in my view, it's signed , has it's original hardware & a desirable form. Yeah, interesting piece, eastlake in appearance.
