    16 drawer parts cabinet from Western Union Telegraph Co. All of it's 16 drawers are stuffed with pieces parts for I assume telegraph repair. Cabinet is in great condition, the paint has peeled a little on the front but it is structurally very solid. It comes apart in three interlocking sections. The name " Hamilton" is embossed on the handles. It has no markings or labels indicating when it was built.
    What is the overall interest in this type of piece, every seen another one?

      Thank you very much!
      Indeed I have thought of shadow boxes while looking through the draws many times. It would be a shame to piece it out though.

      Wow! Your awesome!
      It is a wonderful thing when the internet works so well.
      Thanks again!

      This is the only picture and post I can find online about this cabinet. I also have one, just about identical. Can anyone point me in the direction of a dealer for this ? I’m ready to part with it.
