An antique door makes a spacious desk for antique dealers Jeff Cline and Bill Knopse in their shop, Kagedo, in Seattle. Rich cypress sliders like this often closed off the kitchen area in old homes. In general, they are too small to use as doors in Western settings unless they are mounted in a larger frame.

Ellen H. Clapsaddle (1865?-1934), an American artist born in New York state. During the golden age of postcards in the early 20th century, holiday-themed greetings were all the rage and Clapsaddle became one of the genre’s most prolific artists. Close to 2,000 postcards have been attributed to Clapsaddle.
The front of this postcard from the early 1900s presents an embossed illustration by iconic card artist Ellen H. Clapsaddle, complete with an articulated arm.
