Featured in this lot is this beautiful, mahogany barrister bookcase with four cabinets (six sectionals) circa mid 1900s. No makers mark is present. The barrister bookcase was born out of necessity. Barristers, or lawyers that specialize in case law and represent clients in court, found themselves in need of a piece of furniture that could not only store volumes of reference books but also could be transported safely and easily as they traveled from court to court. This barrister features four hinged glass doors that open upwards and slide into place to keep them open. Each piece is secure but can easily be taken off to add or subtract sections or for easy transportation. Overall the cabinet is in good condition for its vintage age. It shows some wear from its use over the years, but no signs of obvious damage is noted. The piece measures 14 1/8" L x 33 13/16" W x 61 15/16" H.
