Vintage U.S. Army Field Desk








Michael Williams scours the United States looking for gems of Americana post on his blog: A Continuous Lean. This is one of my favorites of his posts and something that I am truly envious of. Michael picked up this U.S. Army field desk while visiting this years Brimfield show.

"The markings on the side seem to indicate that this mobile desk — which was most likely used for a clerk — was probably issued for the Korean War and not WWII. All of the drawers are intact and there is a perfect place for your typewriter, pen / pencils, paper and other supplies."
