 PHOTOS AND INSTALLATION


PHOTOS TAKE PRECEDENT OVER DESCRIPTION! PLEASE LOOK AT PHOTOS CAREFULLY! THESE LOOK VERY NICE BUT ARE NOT A PERFECT MATCH TO THE OLD AGED BANDS! THEY ARE AGED BLACK WITH BRASS UNDERNEATH, BUT THERE IS NO TIGER STRIPING PRESENT ON THE SURFACER. THATS FOR YOU TO TRY. WE HAVE ANTIQUE ORIGINAL 120-YEAR-OLD BANDS IN STOCK BUT THEIR CONDITION IS FAR MORE WORN AND THEY ARE MORE COSTLY. JUST CONTACT ME THRU MESSAGING IF YOU WISH TO HAVE AN OLD SET.


1ST PHOTO SHOWS:  

One set of 11 ½” aged bands that come with the order.

 

2ND PHOTO SHOWS:

The ends of the set of bands and the different sizes of the clips. Facing the unit for reference, the right-side band has a smaller clip that will slide into the larger clip on the left side of the next stack to it, interlocking them for stability. The units must be the same size height to line up to interlock. Refer to the photos for full illustrations.



THESE PHOTOS OF STACK ARE FOR REFERENCE ONLY AND TO HELP THE BUYER UNDERSTAND WHAT THEIR SIDE BANDS MAY LOOK LIKE INSTALLED.



3RD PHOTO SHOWS:

 Shows the ends of pairs of bands for reference. Note the difference sizes of the clips.


4TH & 5th PHOTO SHOWS:

Shows a pair of left and right-side bands interlocked for illustration.


6th PHOTO SHOWS:

Illustrates #8 of the attachment hardware that comes with the set of side bands. There are also included #2- ¾” 4D nails for attaching the tongue (not shown) that goes thru the slots in the side bands and the rear bent “L” shaped end of the bands. The ends are attached to the rear support board by nailing the ¾” 4D nail into it. The tongue has a ¾” 4D nail that is nailed into the bottom of the front ¾” structural brace. These are for both sides of the set of the bands. Many original installations only had one side with the re-enforcing tongue. These extra attachments at the rear of the band, and especially thru the tongue inserted in the slots, have a rock-solid attachment to the units providing both stability thru interlocking the units side by side, and stacks that are lined up for a much safer library setting.


7th PHOTO SHOWS:

A 3-unit stack showing the 5 predominate side bands seen in libraries. The bottom unit is an “E” unit with 13 ½” length bands. Then it steps back using the “E” step back (COMB.) bracket to transition to the “D” unit on the 2nd level. The “D” unit band is 11 1/2” in length. This “D” unit then transitions to a “C” unit using the “D” step back (COMB.) bracket. The “C” unit side bad length is 9 ½” as is the “C” top. These bands are for sale in another of our eBay ads.


8th PHOTO SHOWS:

An example of 17 ½” bands on a commercial file stack unit. These bands are for sale in another of our eBay ads.


9th PHOTO SHOWS:

A wonderful Globe Wernicke INTERLOCKING factory advertisement illustrating the actions of the clips on the bands.


FINAL PHOTO:

Another Globe Wernicke 1900 Advertisement that illustrates and explains the different patented mechanical features of the Globe Wernicke construction. 


ITEM DESCRIPTION/DETAILS: 


For those of you who are Globe Wernicke®/Macey stack barrister legal bookcase collectors, restorers, investors and fans these are EXACTLY what you need to finish detailing your Globe Wernicke® “D” & “C" series bookcase units.

YOU ARE PURCHASING A FULL SET OF 2 (TWO) SIDE BANDS WITH AN AGED FINISH. THAT'S ONE PAIR, THAT MEASURE 11 1/2 INCHES IN LENGTH. THE “C” UNIT 9 1/2" SIZE LENGTH IS MADE AVAILABLE BY CUTTING THE ENDS OF THESE 11 ½” length SIDE BANDS (WE DO NOT OFFER THIS SERVICE AT THIS TIME. THE BUYER MUST CUT TO LENGTH TO FIT THE “C” UNITS).                                                                                                                               

THE LONGER 17 ½” length Bands for the “E” & 41” COMMERCIAL UNITS ARE AVAILABLE IN ANOTHER OF OUR EBAY ADS.                                                                                                                                                                   

THESE GLOBE WERNICKE/MACEY SIDE BANDS ARE INTERLOCKING FOR SIDE-BY-SIDE STACKS (IF APPLICABLE). THE CLIPS ARE DIFFERENT SIZES DEPENDING IF THEY ARE ON THE RIGHT OR LEFT SIDE OF THE CASES (SEE ABOVE PHOTOS FOR ILLUSTRATION OF THE INTERLOCKING ACTION). They are the exact height & width dimension range; the clips are in a slightly different position from 100-year-old productions but work if interlocked with themselves on a side-by-side stack. If not, side by side, the bands work perfectly well on any applicable free-standing stack The pieces are laser cut, perfectly dimensional formed and bent. Again, they are slightly different in the location of the interlocking clips. THESE 11 ½” SIDE BANDS WERE PREDOMINATELY USED ON THE STANDARD PRE-1920 GLOBE WERNICKE® "C" & "D" standard production units. The 17 1/2” bands for the "E", "G", "H" and 41-inch UNITS bands are available in our other ad on eBay. We have gone to considerable expense, time and effort to have these produced again. These are very difficult to produce exactingly. The installation just takes a few minutes and appears authentic, (EXCEPT THESE LOOK NEW NEXT TO 100+ YEAR OLD ORIGINALS), when installed with the accompanying mounting hardware.

 

  WE ALSO HAVE ANTIQUE GLASS ON HAND IF DESIRED AS WELL AS ALL POSSIBLE KNOBS.

 

   WE HAVE THE SCISSORS FOR ALL GLOBE WERNICKE® DOORS. PLEASE SEE OUR OTHER EBAY ADS.

 

   WE WILL BE PRODUCING DOORS (EXACTING TO EARLY 1900 GLOBE WERNICKE® PRODUCTION DOORS) IN THE NEAR FUTURE. WE WILL BE USING 700+ YEAR OLD WOOD.
