Should be some extra space in Q

Twenty-six drawers, no waiting:

Alphabet Chest by Kent and London

Glorious, isn’t it? The only downside I can see, apart from not having £2700 (plus God knows what for freight) to spare, is that I know I’d try to keep things in the appropriate drawer: boxers in B, socks in S, and things I can’t possibly recognize after all these years in X.

Not that anyone should be surprised that I exhibit signs of OCD.

    Not sure what this is a sign of, but I have actually set lead and wooden type and printed on a letterpress, and it disturbs me because the letters should be mirror-image to print right.

    Other than that, I love it! Although not £2700 worth of love (which works out to US$4440 or so, today anyway, and over $5000 CDN. And it’s actually not that big, either. Just clever.

    T-shirts, socks and underwear would overwhelm those small drawers. “J” would have to be the “junk” drawer.

    Lots of room for cravats and cummerbunds, though.

    Not enough room in “t” for t-shirts and turtlenecks. Then again, I have yet to see a dresser that would have as much room in it as I would like.

    But yeah, it is pretty cool. I wonder if the artist would do a custom job, spelling out words for someone (Though what someone would choose to have “written” on a dresser, other than the rather silly “clothes go here,” I don’t know)
