These were not actually produced as bookcases, but rather as display racks for a company which sold a line of men's and women's colognes marketed in nymph and satyr bottles designed by Rumph.

The only Rumph altar painted in color in existance, to my knowledge. Photos show front and back.
This work (unpainted) was featured on T.V's "Power Rangers" and "Beyond Bizarre"

the runes above Belial the winged demon (top center) translate as "Love", according to the translation guide in the Rumph catalog of '75.
