A Paul McCobb Credenza!

As regular readers to this website know, I have a Paul McCobb "planner group" dining room table (I actually have two of them: A drop leaf with a wooden top, and the controversial Formica topped one that I currently use.) I adore the McCobb look - it's clean and "natural" (well, maybe not the Formica part, but you get the idea) and just suits my sense of style well.

And now, because of that damn/wonderful eBay, I have a McCobb Planner Credenza on it's way! Here's a pic of a similar credenza - isn't it cool?



The poor thing has been living in a suburb of Flint, for goodness sake, for the last 50 years or so, and is now going to start a new life out west.

But the downside is that I now have to find a way to get it out of Flint. The old people I bought it from sold it to me cheap, but can't handle the moving part.

I'm hoping that I won't have to take a trip to Flint to get this thing, but one never knows. The only thing I know about Flint is what I saw on "Roger and Me" (Michael Moore's famously funny/sad film) and that didn't make me want travel there.

Oh, the things we do for furniture.....
