Zeno Display Case

Zeno Mfg. Co., Chicago, IL, c. early 1900's, 17". This is one of several versions of the Zeno display case. All are wood and are shaped similarly, but differ in the marquee (pressed wood versus carved wood) and in the presence of ornate beading along some lines such as the interface between the mirror and wood on the inside of the back door.

I'd been looking for one of these for quite some time but couldn't find one that was all original, in good shape, and priced reasonably. I found this at the Indy Ad Show in the spring of 2004, brought it home and gave it a healthy gulp of mineral oil, and then started filling it.
