[QUOTE="alwayscode390, post: 291598, member: 5886"]Hi, I acquired this dresser yesterday, and am having a hard time dating it. The back has a lot of stamps and a tag thats 1/2 ripped off ... Most I could make from it is Merchants Page Co Page Iowa (Merchants is just a guess). The tag also says Lot#16033 / Piece#732. The back was branded 430 , and painted "Mahg. 430" , it was also branded 1670. Everything points to the Georgian period ( 1760-1770 ) with the cast iron casters, hand made dovetails, and Sheraton legs. I'll take more pics of anything you would like to see if it helps. Ive spent HOURS searching the internet ... any help is appreciated LOL [IMG]https://www.facebook.com/images/emoji.php/v9/f4c/1/16/1f642.png[/IMG]:) thanks! --- [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/ir2u7k.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/juhg8k.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/ic8pyg.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/nogilv.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i67.tinypic.com/2rg029z.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i63.tinypic.com/2hq5t8x.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/24v1ovn.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/2chavyf.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
