Old, early 1900s I'm told. It was purchased locally from a soda fountain / pharmacy that went bankrupt. It's been in my local area for 15-20 years before that it was in a soda fountain since new in Texarkana, TX

Cool piece. Dont see to many original marble counter tops. People dont like or cant physically move them and they get left behind at some point. Bet it was alot of fun to move. Probably weighs a ton. Is that wood mahogany?

Not really sure what kind of wood it is but it has a great look. Yes the marble sucks to move! Two 6ft long pieces not a easy task. Very heavy and also fragile. I moved this and three wall units today the largest wall unit is 16 ft long in one piece thankfully the top section came off the bottom cabinet.

Look at a hinge real close and it should have a patent date on it. I have a couple drugstore 8' x 8' from the turn of the century and they are marked such as. My guess would be 1920 or so. Maybe a little earlier. Super nice piece Joey.
