The Story behind it....
I tried to buy this kitchem 15 years ago, it is in the basement of the house it was installed in originally, in the early 60s , Mrs Stevens who was a furniture store owner saw a St Charles display at the furniture market, She as well as 2 of her neighbors bought these and had them installed in their houses, my Uncle wired them, Mrs Stevens was a wonderful lady who I helped with odd jobs as a teenager, so I saw these in the kitchen where they were originally installed, when She died a Doctor bought the house and put in a restaurant style kitchen and moved these to the basement, I tried to buy them but the greedy Dr wanted 10.000 then, 5,000 is sTILL too much!!! But they really are nice.The house these are in is in the "Old Money' section of Lenoir, Mostly Doctors Lawyers and furniture executives.
