SATURDAY SALE
Elegant mahogany and brass nine drawer long dresser (with mirror) from the Viscount collection made by Gibbard Furniture Company of Napanee, Quebec, Canada in March 1956. Only 60 were made.
The Viscount was advertised as the ultimate in Gibbard modern furniture. It was the largest and most commodious bedroom suite in the Gibbard Modern line at that time. It was made in Mahogany and finished in African Red Mahogany, Havana Tan or a two tone combination.
Mirror is removable.
The suite was designed by Wesley T. Griffin a Gibbard designer from 1923 until his death in 1981.
I have not been able to find documentation to corroborate my belief that there is a connection with Edmond J. Spence
