    Default White Black Embossed in "Vanity" Cabinet

    I called on a CL posting 32 min after it was posted. It was a black embossed in a Vanity cabinet for $130. Left immediately and picked it up. Seller pulled the drawer front off before we got there. Have all of the parts. DH will put it back together again. Plugged it in and it runs well. Has a flat spot on the rubber drive on the motor, makes a thump, thump sound as it turns. Have another one to steal from. Cords look good. Light cord a little frayed, but not dangerous. Cabinet finish is not good, lots of white areas. Going to look into Howard's Restor a Finish. If that doesn't work like I hope it will, then I will use Formby's Refinisher on it. It has the number 354 imprinted in the wood on the inside of the cabinet. The serial number is 1X859. Got a set of attachments w/it. Any info that you could share, I would appreciate.

    I'm not to familiar with the newer (in relation to my collection) electrics like this, but I have always LOVED the embossed Whites.. great little machines!

    Nice find. The cabinet is called a library table.
    And Steve, I believe there were three versions of this. I've only ever seen one in person, the bronze, that someone had completely ruined trying to "polish it up".
