												December 1982 was when I brought mine home.  We had the side pieces wedged in between the seats of my then room-mate's car.  I sorta was wedged against the door, as most of my seat, and the rest of the car, was full of shelves.
Went through a lot of Danish oil, preparing them.  Those shelves have done yeoman work - fish tanks, tv's, stereos, and literally thousands of books, have lived on them.
