TOOO cute!

That is so cool!

I'd love to see the vintage office you could set up with all your finds!

What a great little find!!

Wow - wonderful find! Truly.

What a great find. I've never seen anything like it before.

That's sooo diddy sweet! What's in the little door?! Ooh exciting find! Clever you!

That is so cool. I've never seen one of those. What a great find. I love old office supplies.

I have a different version with boxes resembling the "Gummed Labels" box in yours. I've seen another eBay seller describing yours as the kitchen version.

Do you have any idea of how old these are? My guess was 1940's to 1960's. Another online seller I saw had a smaller version and estimated it at 1950's to 1970's.

Anyway, I think it's a pretty cool find. Is your "bookcase" actually made of wood? It looks that way. Mine is just heavy paperboard.

I love these!! I posted awhile back on a similar set - you can see them here...
