i am curious about when and where these beds were used and some of the particulars of the makeup of the bed…(ie) the brackets on both head and footboard that look as if they held some sort of rod or post up vertically above the bed itself? i have limited info about this bed …i know the insignia is an army quartermaster symbol and that the beds were possibly made between 1901 and 1905…and used in some cases till the 1960s in VA hospitals. any other info would be great.
