Grandaddy of Expanding Slat Tables
From Simplymod, a Brown Saltman table so solid “you can seat your entire family on this baby or put your giant plasma TV on it and have no fear”. Expands from 55½ to 97 inches.

wow! i have one of these from 1960 and i never knew much else about it. so great to see this here! anyone have any further info on this table? it is an original or a reproduction?
The ebay sale is missleading. This is not a Brown-Saltman. These slat tables were made in Europe during the 1950-60′s. Most likely Chekoslovakia or Hungrary.
Oh my goodness! You post the BEST pieces…
For Patrick:
Here is a scan from a 1950s article showing the Brown Saltman expandable Bench designed by John Keal.

just saw one of these at a junk shop in IL for 65 bucks
