Antiques Texas City 1960's Apothecary storage cabinet Hospital Pharmacy medical collectible retro 60's American Steel Made in USA



**
Apothecary 18 Drawers Cabinet, 1960's vintage Pharmacy Medical relic, Industrial Americana classic 60's American Steel Metal Made in USA 92d

Manufactured by Equipto Aurora Illinois

Measures 34" Wide x 11" Depth x 12 1/2" High

Drawers measures 11" x 5 1/2" they are smooth inside, no ridges on base, sides have grooves but base is smooth!

Note: Comes with nics & dings.

Obtained from online hospital auction.

I thought this piece would look better in a studio apartment used as a coffee table or end table.

Lots of great storage!


Equipto has been a leader in the space utilization market for years.

A consistently better product, outstanding customer service and an attitude that keeps clients coming back has made Equipto what it is today.

Equipto's philosophy is that they want to make it as simple as possible to do business with them.

From Cars to Complete Space Utilization Systems - Equipto Evolves



It all began in 1907, when Thomas M. Dunham began developing motorcycle headlights and sidecars in Aurora, Illinois.

With the increase in automobile production, motorcycle parts soon were not in such high demand, so Equipto began producing body parts for Ford Motor Company's Model T Chassis.

As the relationship with the car industry flourished, Dunham began hearing other needs within the automotive industry.

One car dealer needed heavy-duty shelving to store large, hefty car parts and the idea for space utilization products was born.

As World War II approached, Equipto retooled to produce various steel products needed for Allied efforts.

It was during this time that Equipto diversified its product line to meet the demand for other space-saving products.

John C. Dunham, Thomas' son, took over the business after World War II and continued to develop products and expand the customer base beyond the automobile industry.

In 1991, Thomas Dunham's grandson, Tom Matyas, became President and CEO.

Today, Equipto's customers range from industrial clients such as Caterpillar and Boeing, retail clients using display shelving like Mikasa and The Gap, to healthcare facilities such as Mt. Sinai-Chicago and DuPont Medical Systems that utilize Equipto's filing products

The company that began in 1907 was having growing pains in the '60s.

The Aurora plant had been the only home to Equipto's headquarters and sole manufacturing plant, but in 1970, growth in business necessitated that Equipto expand operations to two new manufacturing plants in Tatamy, Pennsylvania and Dallas, Texas.

As the company grows and flourishes, new products and systems are being built.

It's not just one product that sets Equipto apart, it's their entire line of products.

Ranging from mezzanines to Mobile Aisle systems, Equipto makes a better product that they stand behind and guarantee.

Many of Equipto's products have stood the test of time and continue to be big sellers in the market.

One such system that was built in 1963 is the V-Grip™ System.

Because of it's unlimited versatility and quality design, this system is the cornerstone of Equipto's successful product line. V-Grip™ is much more than a heavy duty shelving product.

All the components can stand-alone or be combined to build the perfect solution to any space utilization problem.

In the heart of Old Texas City

We are the only Resale Shop operating in the downtown business district.

Back in October of 2008 during the Bank Crash, there were 18 Antique Shops doing business here on 6th Street North.

Now there are only two Resale Shops left selling to the local community.

Our friends Keith & Debbie have a family owned business located about a mile north of our location.

Their hours are 10:00am to 5:00pm

We are not in competition with each other

Both stores have their own unique merchandise & by visiting our shops...you save gasoline spent joyriding from garage sale to yard sale around the countryside.

Even though the economy has turned soft...

We are very optimistic about the future here in Texas City.

In Pawnshops & Junkyards a hard-up country searches for it's past.

That's why we used to travel around hitting Thrift Stores & Garage Sales, even hoofing through those "Flea Markets" up in Houston
( Which was always like a cheesey version of "Romancing the Stone" )


Our various Antique Dealers & Woman who just love to shop haul in their curios to display & sell at Antiques Texas City.


We love vintage junk and finding treasures in the trash.

Junkyards & junk stores havent been this popular since Sanford and Son

Think of Antiques Texas City and our friends over at Rust & Dust as places to do treasure hunts that help you make do with what you have in tough times.

We are not about fixing up junk into valuables

We are focused on reusing, upcycling & reselling.

We have Ladies who find over looked "Gems" & bring them here to display for sale.

We don't buy from "Walk-Ins"

But we do sell project materials for Crafters & Artists with economic frankness.

Antiques Texas City has your treasure

Artifacts from the  expansionary society of the Greatest Generation era to the everything must go days of the current Great Recession.

There's a fallen-world nostalgia to the Resale Store business.

Antiques Texas City along with Rust & Dust's display showrooms & warehouse are a tribute to the artifacts of a better, more authentic time.

Remember back in the day when things were made by hand and people took pride in their work?

Midcentury craftsmanship?
