The Old Door

Description

A decorative cut brass plate embellishes the very weathered old front door of a historic home in Maysville, KY. While I couldn't be certain this front door was the actual original for the 1827 house, it certainly carries the look of all that age!
PG101 "Old" Theme.

A wonderful theme shot, Christopher! I love the texture in the painted wood. It looks old. <>< #1669222

Thanks, folks! A touch of OCD in me wants to tackle this door with a paint scraper ;) #11519134

I wish I had a door like this! Or at least the brass plate, I already have old doors. :-) Great close up of all the detail, Chris! #11519181

Thanks, Michele. The house I grew up in was quite old, and the front door had paint exactly like this... #11519224
