Lovely antique sled, that I use as a coffee table in my living space. It is 76 inches from the top of the steering part of the sled to the end of the seat. The seat is 12 inches broad, and it has metal on the runners. A rope pulls the sled, however I have never ever utilized this as a sled, only as a coffee table. It looks wonderful, is a gorgeous primitive, and can quickly take your feet to rest while enjoying television! Please call if you want to see this beautiful piece. Thanks for looking.
