Ticket Box ?

[NW Mailing List]

Jimmy,

I'm certainly no expert, but I have my doubts about it being a ticket case. 
HOWEVER, it very well could have been a station piece. Remember, many(most) 
of the antique dealers know just enough about railroads to get themselves 
mixed up . If it indeed came from a depot, a ticket case would be the first 
(and only) thing they could think of, therefore they'll swear that's what it 
is.

It's a beautiful cabinet. I'd hang on to it (even if you use it as a 
breadbox!).
