[GreenKeys] unusual cover, or not?

[Til128 at aol.com]

Are these in fact Teletype  covers/cabinets/whatever?
They look as if they might have heavy sound  insulation.
Or are they simply furniture?  
------------------------------------------
These desks have nothing to do  with Teletype. They are called "standing 
foreman's/receiving desks". Still  made--- of metal.
They were/are used for storing blueprints, orders, and a  myriad of 
paperwork, and small tools. When you close the top, it was a slanted  
working/writing surface. If you notice carefully, the paper he is taking out of  the 
desk, is already written on with corrections in pen/pencil.

As for  the "strange stuff," It's wicker. (As in wicker seats in chairs.) 
On the  top and the sides to let the inside if the desk "breathe".
