With our highest compliments and utmost honors, Bay Colony Antiques is extremely proud to offer for sale this fantastic early 20th century antique Tiger Oak 6 drawer file cabinet. The cabinet was made by the Moon Desk Company of Muskegon Michigan and retains its original cloth tag on the backboard & paper labels affixed to the base panel of each drawer. Those who follow us know we’re among the most aggressive buyers of quality antique library/office furniture. The company either wasn’t in business for long or weren’t very prolific because we buy cabinets in this style from all over the country and can’t recall ever having a Moon file cabinet before. The cabinet is extremely well made, and all of the drawers actuate with ease & retain their original brass thumb pulls. We’ve attached a scan from an original Moon catalog showing similar files on page 96 in their catalog. Not every format is shown but on page 93 you can see this file advertised as a 2 drawer wide open front 6 drawer letter file. If you’ve been in the market for a superior & unique file cabinet, we would recommend this example without hesitation to even our most scrupulous collectors. The drawers have useable dimensions of 12” wide x 10 1/2” deep x 3 1/4” tall. The overall dimensions of the cabinet are 29” wide x 12 3/4” deep x 17” tall.
