1930s Handmade Great Depression Era Wooden Baby Cradle Primitive Farmhouse

Description

This handmade, wooden baby cradle will make the perfect addition to your primitive or farmhouse-style home. It does need a bit of restoration however, it would be perfect as is.
This below average-size baby cradle was specially handmade for a local gentleman, shortly after his birth. He was born in 1932 during the height of the Great Depression, in Shelbiana, Kentucky. Like most families of Eastern Kentucky, his family was struggling to survive. He was born early, small, and sick. A family member made this cradle for him to help soothe him to sleep, as he was a very “fussy youngin'”.
Thankfully, he survived, as did the rest of his family. He passed away within the last year but, lived a full and happy 88 years!
Approximate measurements: 11-inches tall, 21-inches long, 8.75-inches wide, and 4-inches deep.
