Handsome vintage Industrial Rustic pair of modular stacking sectional or barrister bookcases by Globe-Wernicke composed of distressed beige metal frames including 4 tall sections & 1 shorter section each with glass inset door fronts, metal pulls, & upward slide door mechanisms, 2 bases, & 2 tops. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, these cabinets have an all over distressed finish including a few nicks, dings, & rust that we purposely left alone as we appreciate the worn vintage look but they are structurally solid. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Early to Mid-20th Century.
