(Original Profile ad designed by noted illustrator Robert McGinnis who also designed movie posters for Breakfast at Tiffany, Barbarella and James Bond films)
"The fluid sculptural quality of each piece of Profile by Drexel has a lived-with feeling....unlike most contemporary. It's warm inviting walnut anticipates your touch, caresses your home. Soft accents of silver hardware give new elegance, and harmonize easily with your accessories. Truly fine construction and good taste distinguishes Profile" Ahh....for the days of advertising copy like that and those Darrin Stephens types! The copy, as well as the design by noted American Modernist designer John Van Koert (see earlier posts for more about John Van Koert), definitely stand the test of time. The design of this six drawer chest as well as the hardware are both very sculptural and the piece has a great looking "profile" 34" l., 21" w., 48" h. American, c.1950's
