John, thank you for the information. If you know of anyone looking for one feel free to send them my way. My wife is going to want it out of the garage at some point in the near future.
Thank you all for your responses. It is hinged. It folds into the side a snuggles up very nicely. I pulled it out of an estate sell house here in Nashville TN. I'm going to attach more pictures of it here in a few minutes. It was too cool to leave, just wish I had a use for.
I am trying to figure out what exactly I have here. I found a thread on here from 2013 but that is all the internet has to offer. I hope you antique geniuses can help.
