That's incredible. That was made in the days when things were made with precision and quality. That maker really took pride in his work.

I wonder how many people got walloped by that easel popping out the first time they opened it?

Anyone know how old this piece is?

Without a doubt the best work I have ever seen, and I have seen plenty. I have made some stuff with hidden compartments, but this is amazing. STUNNING!!!
