My father as a truck driver & mover for American Van Lines during the 1950s. The company also stored furniture for people. Sometimes the stored furniture was never reclaimed by the owners and after a reasonable time, the company sold the furniture. My father as an employee had the opportunity of first option to it. My parents opted to buy a boy's complete bedroom set. I used it growing up. After I had children my daughter used mine. Afterwards, she took it for her children. Only recently, she returned it and my grand daughter used it.
She no long wants this dated piece and I am looking for a good home for it. less
