<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluumz, post: 4021756, member: 649&quot;]I live in Michigan and have come across Imperial furniture fairly often. It was nice middle-of-the-road stuff. IMHO, your coffee table is likely from the late 1940s/early 1950s. On a good day, I might get $50 for it, it might be different in other parts of the country. People into French Country or Cottage Chic may pay a little more if it&#039;s just the right size they&#039;re looking for.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, <a href="http://www.furniturecityhistory.org/company/3638/imperial-furniture-co" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.furniturecityhistory.org/company/3638/imperial-furniture-co" rel="nofollow">THIS</a> website states that Imperial&#039;s founder, F. Stuart Foote, claims to have invented the &quot;coffee table&quot; when he lowered the legs on a table in his home while helping his wife prepare for a party. (The website also states that Imperial was in business from 1903-1954 but shows Imperial labels through 1962.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
