Hello I recently came across this piece in abox I was sorting and wondered if anyone could help me identify its age and if I am correct in assuming it is a chisel rack. Not sure if it would have been for store display or home use. The varnish drips make me think it was home use. It is made of a compressed particle board. I searched the internet, but did not have any luck finding another one.

Looks like a store display to me. Probly someone took it home when its career in the store ended.
Thank you for your help with this. Any idea what it might be worth?
I'm pretty sure that's a store display from the early 1960s. The drips are from a messy shop after someone brought it home.
IMO, You'd have to find the one guy that already has every other Buck Bros display and needs that one to finish his collection before he dies to see much of anything out of it in cash value.
Thanks I am thinking of using it in the kitchen....
