<p>[QUOTE="mark737, post: 4404430, member: 14894"]Somewhat obscure "Dateline" collection from around 1956 (the "456" is likely the production date, April 1956). Many sellers attribute it to well known designer John Van Koert but I doubt it. Van Koert designed the Profile and Counterpoint collections for Drexel and his name is prominently featured in ads and on tags, but the ads for Dateline I saw do not mention a designer. Someone changed the pulls on your dresser, which definitely hurts the value. Nice mid century dresser but probably only in the $100-$200 range, unless you want to misrepresent it as a Van Koert design.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]372983[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
