Does anyone have any advertising materials or booklets about the Drexel Profile line? It was designed by John Van Koert in the late 50s and was sold until the mid-60s.

Thanks!

Thanks!
That link helps me better appreciate the Profile line. All the pieces are beautiful, though naturally none more beautiful than my Profile desk.

nice desk!
It is almost as nice as the parallel line desk..just my opinion!
I have a drexel precendent desk to refinish and have not seen another one like it anywhere period! Must be rare or low production, I think it was designed by Edward Wormley.
Anyone ever see one of these desks before?
