Q: I have a barrister bookcase that once belonged to my grandmother. It has five parts–the top, three glass sections and the base. It is 47 inches high, 17 inches wide and 11 inches deep. The bottom shelf is 15 inches high, the middle 13 inches and the top 10 inches. The glass sections open from the bottom and slide back. The bookcase is marked “Macey Sectional Bookcase.” It has some damage. Everyone I’ve talked to says they have never seen one this small. Any information and the value would be appreciated.
