Vintage Hoosier-Type Kitchen Cabinet by Sellers
Item Details
A vintage Hoosier-type kitchen cabinet. Designed to address the lack of storage space in many kitchens in the early 1900s, the Hoosier Manufacturing Co. popularized this type of cabinet that came to be known by the company’s name, despite quick adoption by other cabinet manufacturers. The lower section of the cabinet has several storage cupboards and drawers, including a cupboard with slide-out shelves. The upper portion has three cupboard doors above a storage area with a slide-down door. The narrow, enameled metal counter top slides outward to increase work space. Designed for maximum efficiency and ease, the cabinet sits on casters. The front of the cabinet has a metal plaque, and while the name of the manufacturer is no longer visible, this cabinet seems to be the Sellers Co. of Elwood, Indiana.
- Item is not available for transfer to any EBTH warehouse. Item must be picked up locally by winning bidder during the published pickup times.
Condition
