What an amazing find! I really like the display case. Any chance you took pictures during the build?
Unfortunately no. The case is Black Walnut. The back is 1/4" Baltic Birch. The top book support is L shaped. The bottom support is flat but it has a rabbet at the back and one at the front for the covers to fit in so that the pages are supported and don't sag over time. The finish is satin Poly and wax.

I knew I had pictures and finally found them. Nothing spectacular but you asked so here they are. :)
