Mid-Century Modern Freak

Atomic. Futurist. Populuxe. Googie. Modernist.

Just bought this spiffy 1957 Drexel desk with leather top designed by John Van Koert for the Drexel Profile Furniture Collection at the local Salvation Army for $178. I’ve seen this piece sell for up to $3,600! What? A few scuffs here and there but I think it’s a pretty good score. What do you think?
