Managed to pick up 6 waist-high cabinets from roughly the '50's with this name plate from a seasonal consignment store, for about $20 each.
Has anyone heard of the name? They are much stouter than any new stuff, and I have not figured how I will use them in my garage yet. The tall cabinets got claimed during my 10 minute drive to the place after a friend shot me a cell phone picture. He was also inspired by Jack Olsen's garage, and managed to stuff 3 of the short cabinets in his suburban, all while waiting for me to arrive.
Two have combination lock doors, I will see what I can do with that. One has pretty good surface rust, but I am using some of the Permatex rust stop on it after attacking it with a wirebrush. I am of course a believer in machine gray for everything, but the wife is making a good case for a hammertone gray, like the Gladiator stuff I was looking at.
I'll try to post some pics later.
