This is, though, the earliest possible date could have been made, not the date made. Since patent protection about 20 yrs, usually patent date on hardware not used after those 20 years, but there are exceptions.</p><p><br /></p><p>In this case, the machine cut dovetails, plywood drawer bottom, and style of piece suggest made later, and into the early 20 th century, as brad suggested. Without more marks will be hard to figure out a maker. Calling it pre or ww1 era is reasonable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
