<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 399317, member: 8363"]<a href="https://www.antiquers.com/members/clutteredcloset49.85/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquers.com/members/clutteredcloset49.85/">clutteredcloset49</a> Here is the bookcase we discussed. As you can see it is a Pacific Desk Company Finish 13 model. I googled it some time ago and saw another one that was supposedly from 1924. The bottom two compartments are in fairly good condition, but the top needs some work to get the glass face open and is missing the original knob. Restoration would be necessary and I'm not sure it would be worth the money. The top of the case is stained mahogany but has knotholes, so there might have had something else on top at one time. It fits under the plate rail in my dining room, so it is the right height but as you can see the rocks have migrated to the top, so I was going to try to get something wider to keep them all under glass. (Rocks are surprisingly hard to keep clean.) [ATTACH=full]138900[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]138901[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]138902[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]138903[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
