Sweet Old Pennsylvania Folk Art Stripe Painted Wall Box milking playform blue ribbon winningFound in Berks County, PA, and I'd bet that's where it originated, or at least nearby, early 20th c.

Good antique condition, one nail repaired split visible from the back; I wou; d not put anything heavy in the pocket, but it's s stable and pretty sound.
