    Two side-middle drawers on Roll top desk have become locked
    We have a large rolltop desk by Winner's Only Inc. (not an antique) somehow in normal use, the two middle drawers on both sides have become locked. How do we open them. No key holes, just some kind of tricky mechanism.

    Thanks all sho are reading my roll top question. I just figured it out. By opening the roll top all the way up with some extra pressure I was able to open one drawer; then had to do the same to open the other. Thanks. Hope this helps anyone else who has lost their manual.
