Pre-1950 "Blue Board" Jensen 100 Shop - Fair Condition

Description: LIVING ESTATE SALE (Details at the end of description) MM/AI For your consideration is a very early Jensen 100 Live Steam Workshop made in the USA on or before 1950. From the Jensen site :"If you ever see a model #100 Jensen Workshop that appears to have been decorated by someone with a can of blue paint, don't walk away. You've just had a close encounter with one of the very earliest versions of this classic Jensen accessory. Tom Senior did indeed paint his earliest workshop (1948-1950) bases this particular shade of blue. The standard varnished wood bases began to appear along about 1951 and was used on all we produced until they were phased out of production in 1985." This shop is in its original condition and has not been restored.It is only in fair condition (see below).The workshop is complete except for the original box that is missing.It is all original except for the label that is a reproduction. Everything moves as it's supposed to.There is one roller that is missing on the top of the drill press (photo).As expected for a 70+ years old collectible, there is some paint flaking, but there is hardly any corrosion. Please select the shipping system that suits you best. Condition :This 70+ year old Jensen Shop tools is only in fair condition. It was made on or before 1951. It is complete with the exception of the original box that is missing. Everything moves as it's supposed to. There is a missing roller on the drill press (photo) and the label is a reproduction. I would rate it a C4/C5. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four shipping options. You can check the cost by clicking next to shipping on "See Details" or make your choice at take-out. The default is usually UPS Ground as Expedited Shipping can be expensive and is not necessarily more reliable. Please keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping that is calculated by eBay.Free pick-up is always available (Rock Hill, SC). LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling. LIVING ESTATE SALE DETAILS :I had my first steam engine when I was 9 years old. That was 65 years ago. I have been collecting them for 25 years and I am now 74. None of my descendants is interested in the collection, so I decided that it was time to liquidate. As of November 2024, I still have over 1,300 engines of all kinds to list. I believe in full disclosure. It takes me about an hour to list one item, between the assessment, the testing, the video, the photos, the description and the very careful packaging. I try to have very reasonable prices. At comparable quality, my prices are probably the lowest on the market.
