I have a Globe-Wernicke bookcase I'm trying to learn more about. I know there are tons of them out there, but I think this one is a little special. First off, it has all the signs of being one of the oldest. It has no labels at all. The size is handwritten on the top of each unit. It has that stenciled company label. But, it also has a dowel system to open the drawers, and it is super smooth. I have seen many similar cases but none ever with the dowel system, rather they all have that metal scissor system. Anyone know anything further about this particular bookcase? I find the closest info about it at this website: [URL]https://deepdoodoo.wordpress.com/2012/09/25/globe-wernicke-bookcases-the-standard-style/[/URL] Photos attached here. Thank you,[/QUOTE]
