When the leaf was out, there was a space, under the tabletop for hiding little notes and bits and pieces.<br /><br />I just bought Barbra Streisand's book about her style. In it she mentions playing under the dining table, as a child.:-)<br /><br />Enjoyed this so much!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1196245046283156161.post-23641971119633468172011-02-16T06:21:40.851-06:002011-02-16T06:21:40.851-06:00what a great piece to have.
