PRICE IS EACH

Fixed shelf industrial rolling carts manufactured by C.F. Anderson and Co. for use in the printing and bookbinding industries. Each unit is constructed with a dark-patinated metal frame consisting of iron or steel piping and vertical rods secured with cast iron ball-style joints. Light rust to iron. Wheels turn easily. Inch thick maple shelves display wear associated with age and use. Each cart features fixed-height shelves made of a light-toned hardwood, possibly maple or birch. The underside of shelf bears a black ink maker stamp that reads: FROM / C. F. ANDERSON and CO. / 3225 CALUMET AVE. / CHICAGO 16, ILL. Each measures 57"H x 27"W x 21"D.

We have produced illustrations of a 'hanging' third shelf that would suspend from the uppermost horizontal pipes which we're happy to provide. Construction would be a simple matter of several hardwood boards, cross supports and upside down black iron coat hangers. Also note we modified the shelves so that they lay perfectly flat. Originally they were made to tip toward the back.
