service station equipment question

[DTE]

I was in a place today and hidden in the corner was a metal desk/cabinet that was used in a gas station back in the day. I have looked all over the internet and can not find a photo of one. This cabinet is about 50 inches tall with a angled top with some cubby holes at the edge of the top. It is about 36 inches wide with a full width drawer right below the top and double doors on the side where the drawer is located. Any photos or thoughts on value would be good. It was used as a service writer desk.

Something like the pic below but enclosed at bottom? $25-50 used depending on the selling medium. Craig's and eBay are the highest, at a shop auction many times you'll see them sell for $10

Lots around like that, both old and new.

A variation of a shippers or receivers desk that they worked from doing deliveries to stores, businesses, etc.

I imagined they wrote up service orders as the customers dropped off thief cars.

Thanks,
I have not seen any for sale and not as valuable as I had hoped.

Try here. Pretty common in manufacturing as a "shop floor desk"

I added a shelf to mine.

work was going to toss this one, but I saved it and added a light. I like it.
