I had about 6 of those I tried to get rid of on here for $5.00 for the bunch but no takers. I don't know what happened to them but if I find them I'll send them to you. That is the first rack I ever saw, Great piece And I believe it is from the mid 50's Last edited by KZ1000; Thu Oct 20 2011 05:05 PM.
