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.

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.

SHOWS:
An
example of 17 ½” bands on a commercial file stack unit. These bands are for sale

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.
