Good morning, The peddlar's cart has been claimed. Best, Jackie Jacalynn Harvey Director Roseville Public Library 29777 Gratiot Avenue Roseville, MI 48066 586-447-4550 ________________________________ From: Michlib-l <michlib-l-bounces@mcls.org> on behalf of Jacalynn Harvey (Roseville Public Library) via Michlib-l <michlib-l@mcls.org> Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2025 7:42 PM To: Michlib-L <michlib-l@mcls.org> Subject: [Michlib-l] Peddlar's Cart - free to a good library or museum home The Peddlar's Cart in the photos is free to a good library or museum home. The Friends of the Roseville Public Library purchased the Peddlar's Cart to use as a prop to promote the Friends and their activities in 1998 from the Otto Building Company in Burton, Michigan. The Friends stopped using it approximately 10 years ago and it has been in the Library's (dry) basement since. It is in good shape with some scarring on the white laminated surface. It has two small drawers and a cubby that lock (keys are are available) for storage. These carts from Otto Building were sold to other libraries across the country for the same "display" purpose including the Alexandrian Public Library in Indiana. I have a folder that includes the original invoice and blueprints for the cart. Measurements: length - 60" height to the top of the slatted canopy - 79" width - 28" The cart is very heavy and does not move easily, however you can move it short distances safely. The Friends rarely moved it from the lobby. I could not see a way to easily remove the four canopy supports and the canopy for transport. It may have to be transported in one piece. You must be able to move it into your vehicle as we may not always have assistance available. The blueprints and a copy of the invoice with the name of the manufacturer go with the cart. The Roseville Public Library building is currently being prepared for renovation and the cart must go in preparation for contractors to begin the demolition of the interior. If you would like the cart, it must be picked up by July 31. I'll send a message if/when the cart is claimed.
