<p>[QUOTE="Roaring20s, post: 4434899, member: 17270"]Let the "witness marks" be your guide. Look at the interior of the cabinet. You will see the type of shelving it had. I can see along the back wall that there are clear lines from one little bracket to the next. If there is no evidence of similar lines or holes from other brackets on the sides, then it never had them. It may have only had the back shelves like in the first link I posted.</p><p>Also, I think you will have a tough time matching the wood. It's a good idea to let the new buyer do what they think is best. I agree that they push rod is important to replace! I'd have a clear glass rod of brass tube cut to fit. Address the water stain and the veneer chip and you're done.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
