Vintage cast-aluminum cookbook or recipe book stand. The photo makes it look like cast iron and all of he ones i found online are cast iron but this one I am pretty sure is cast aluminum. Overall good shape. It is not real heavy but it is not light weight either. It stands 9 inches tall and it is almost 10 inches wide. Since I could not find a cast aluminum one on E**bay or G**oogle, figuring this one might be rare. Must pick up in N Phx.. Cross posted. Cross streets - Union Hills and 16th St.
