Condition

There is a working original or period key and 12 of the 16 metal push pin self supports, 4 pins absent so currently only 3 shelves can be supported with current hardware. There is no key scutcheon. This, according to the owners, was purchased decades ago at the Gas Plant Antique Arcade in St. Petersburg, Florida. The finish cleaning and or refinishing inside and out appears to date from around the time of acquisition. The rear glass fillets may have been cleaned or refinished so glass originality in these cases we uniformly state as unknown, however there are visible ripples in raking light in the glass panes so they are likely period. A few generally small expected scuffs and rubs to various sides and boards including top front edge and lower door and right front vertical, generally very minor.
