ANTIQUE FURNITURE RESTORATION DISCUSSION BOARD

In Response To: "White Mountain" ice box (Tim Brandewie)
Date: 7/18/4 17:35
Just yesterday, I purchased a "White Mountain" ice box exactly like the one you are describing. However this one has all original finishes and hardware. I believe it's made out of pine but is paint-grained to resemble oak.
Note: Inside the lid, scratched into the metal at the top right hand corner are the numbers: "#8, $9.75"
I wonder if this is the original price for the piece?
I have searched the internet in VAIN trying to find more information on White Mountain ice boxes--NO LUCK. Even the venerable "Kovels Antiques" was a disappointing dead-end.
If you would like me to send you a picture, I can do so. And if you have found any information on our ice boxes, please let me know.
Thanks! Sandy
