The Brunswick alke-C ollender Co.,,
makers OF the Brunswick have specialized
in fine cabinet work for over seventy-6ve
years. From grandfathers to. father and
son has passed the art Of wood working,
according to Brunswick ideas. American
industries grant Brunswick top place as
cabinet makers.
Now the House of Brunswick offers its
consummate art over it's w name, in
Brunswick photograph cabinets that are
gems Of craftsmanship.
In style each cabinet has been designed
with a view of making it suitable for any
environment. We have avoided Period
designs, so often inappropriate, unless in.
accord with other furnishings. We have
avoided the ornate and over-elaborate.
Brunswick cabinets attain their de luxe
beauty by the use of super-6ne mahogany
and other rare woods, finished in the
highest style of the Brunswick art. Each
Of the cabinets contains numbered and
indexed filing system. For the small
table machine we provide albums for
record fling books.
