Condition
Overall sturdy and usable condition. Drawers close with some difficulty due to shrinkage. Pieces of veneer missing from slant writing surface. One drawer pull in the secretary is loose and comes up, but is included. The top surface with fading, probably from moisture, on one side. The other side of the top surface with several repaired small holes in the veneer, with brown overpainting. Unsure what caused the holes to need filling.
