Article No. X-2658 is a wooden magazine rack. Article No. Z-1774 is a wooden wall shelf designed to hold small glass bottles. The photograph shows that it also has a towel holder rod on the bottom.

Your request for a classification ruling should include a sample of the magazine rack and a breakdown by value of the component materials of the coat rack.

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction. Sincerely, Jean F.
