I received her as a gift from my sister for my birthday a couple of years ago but was moving and so my sister held on to her for me, then she got a little to attached and asked if she could hold on to her until she found a table. Anyway she is home and that's all that matters. I know she is going to need alot of elbow grease to get her decals to really shine and she has some water spots on top that I will need to try to fix. She has a box of attachments but I forgot to take a picture of them. I have found out she was born on Oct 7, 1908 in Elizabeth, NJ. I just love her cabinet and am so excited to find out if she works. Hope you all get to see her since I've never posted pics. And I also hope you all give me all the help you can on how I can make her shine without damaging anything.

here she is
