Wanted: matching antique cast iron and brass bed

I need to find a mate to my antique cast iron and brass bed. Where are some good places to post a picture of my bed so I can find a matching bed.

I bought my bed in the early 80's in an antique shop in Waltham, MA. I would think that hundreds of this particular bed were made, but how do I find a mate.

Hello,

Your question is pretty old, so my response may be moot, but here goes. I had been in the same position and I found an identical but larger bed. I bought the larger 3/4 size bed and brought it to a welder, who cut it down for me to twin size. I now have a matching set of iron and brass twin beds and they are really stunning!
