Ok.... I have to ask, although I'm sure it has probably been talked about and speculated upon before - but what exactly is the purpose of that door? It seems to be a lot of extra work and material just to cover some mounting screws that they could have just dolled up with some plating in a place almost nobody ever sees.....And if they were that concerned with appearance back there - I think they could have done a better job finishing it! :lol:

It allowed to store the booze more comfortably during the prohibition years. 8-)
