Condition: Excellent Pre-Owned Condition
Observations: No cracks, chips, or dents. From a farm in North Dakota. I cleaned and rubbed the wood with a honeycomb conditioner for wood. There is still some of the original red paint left on the metal legs. There is a "30" stamped on the bottom but I could not find a manufacturer. The owner told me this was her grandfather's and she would use it as a child. She has kept it as a keepsake of memories before downsizing and wanting to give it a new home. I left the bail rope on it as she said that has been on it since she was a child and her grandfather tied it on there from one of his hay bales.
Item Specifications:
Width: approximately 11"
Length: approximately 30"

Combined Shipping:
Should you find more than one thing you would like, I am happy to work with you to combine shipping as I do not look to make a profit off of shipping.
Cleaning and Care Process:
I care about every item I carry in my store, and, spend the time to do what I can to make them as close to how they were at their newest state.
All items offered in the Venture Back Collections store are thoroughly cleaned and inspected as closely as possible to note any observations of use as all items are pre-owned.
Glassware, Stemware, China, Ceramics and Porcelain are shortly soaked in water to expose any chips, cracks or crazing that is difficult to see with the eye so that I can do my best to keep these types of flaws at a minimum and then hand dried and polished.
Other items such as wood, leather, silver, aluminum and brass are cleaned and polished as best as possible, unless otherwise noted.
Packaging and Wrapping
To me, each item I sell is precious; a treasure to you. Each piece is imagined as if the last one in existence.
Each item is carefully double wrapped and packaged for strength and the ability to make it to its destination safely. I am a realist in that after the packages leave my care, they could be tossed, dropped, and have other packages thrown on them; despite the "fragile" warnings I apply to the outer panels of the boxes.
