I have a number of easels in good condition.
2- 11x14 Saunders U1417 4 blade easels . These can also be used as a 14x17 single size easel by popping out the 4 blade assembly. One is an older vintage, but both are in the same good condition and work as they were intended and both lock open to insert paper. I loved these easels, they were easy to adjust and kept the adjustments and were heavy enough not to move when placing in a piece of paper. I also liked that they were low profile and allowed a larger image if your darkroom is height challenged, and they both have the nonslip rubber bottoms.
I would like to get $125.00 each plus shipping One U1417 is sold

1-16x20 Saunders 4 blade easel in good condition. The easel has some paint missing, but that is only cosmetic and the easel otherwise works smoothly. The easel locks open as intended for placing paper.
I would like to get $225.00 plus shipping Sold

1- 20x24 Saunders 4 blade easel. This easel will win no beauty contest, but works exactly as intended. The blades move easily and it locks open to easily place paper. There are small rust spots, but nothing that would offend.
I would like to get $250.00 plus shipping Sold

I have several Borderless easels.
I have two Beseler, 1-16x20 and 1-8x10
Both are in excellent condition.
I would like to get $40.00 for the 16x20 and $20.00 for the 8x10 plus shipping 8x10 has sold

I have one Saunders 11x14 borderless easel in good condition.
I would like to get $30 plus shipping

These easels are built like tanks. They will last you for your life and many generations after you.
 
Rocccity, Thanks for the Thumbs Up. These easels served me well for a lot of years. They are all used, but function as new and should give another photographer another lifetimes of use.
 
May I ask what the external dimensions are of the Saunders 16x20 and the 20x24? I'm tempted but I'm afraid they won't fit on my baseboard!
 
I have finally packed up the 16x20 and the 20x24 easels for shipment. So that you might be able to figure shipping the following applies:
16x20 packed 27x24x3 19.2#'s
20x24 packed 33x28x4 30.6#'s
They will ship by UPS from zipcode 14043 (buffalo, NY)
Thanks to all who looked,
Robert
 
 
FWIW I picked up a like new Saunders 20 x 24 yesterday for $100. I had to drive 1.5 hrs each way but it was a nice drive to the Catskills and I made an amazing new Artist friend.
 
Both the 16x20 and the 20x24 have been sold.
I still have one Saunders U1417 and a couple of borderless easels remaining
 
The 11x14 Saunders U1417 4 blade easel is an essential piece of gear for any darkroom...
 
I still have some easels remaining, the Saunders U1417 and two borderless easels. Make me an offer.
