Condition
In good "as found" condition. The top has old scars and scuffs from years of use, but a nice, pleasing patina. The tilting mechanism works fine. The height adjustment is hooked up to a large cylindrical counterweight. The cables to this weight are currently twisted and have come off their pulley wheels. It does not appear that anything is damaged or missing. The cast iron base measures h. 36", w. 32", d. 24". The top measures 36" tall at the lowest adjustment.
