Visible through the original glass-front door, five rows of three sections each would have kept books and papers neatly organized which could easily be true for a number of diverse collections. The base unit protrudes just slightly forward beyond the towering display above, enclosing a small cabinet with a shelf, 19 ¾” deep. One key included for the working upper lock, using the same key as a pull to open the bottom door. We believe this to be in good antique condition considering its age, and any visible signs of wear are captured in the photos.
