It's a nice bookcase even if not though.

It is very close to a Limbert #366, which is on page 204 of the "Turn of the Century Editions" edited by Gray.

However, that bookcase did not have the keyed tenons


I couldn't find an example of the 366 online, but it is similar to this one without the doors and center support on the top shelf.



Also, I found a close up of another Limbert bookcase with the keyed tenon that looks different. Is the tenon on the case being sold origional or repaired?

I don't know anymore about it than what is listed. I can't find the 366 with tenon/key though.

Looks like a bench made take on the Limbert model, and if the back is just plywood and the rest looks plain sawn all around, the wood isn't worth 600 so I would wait for something better. Ask for bigger and better pictures maybe.
