<p>[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 291651, member: 5170"]I'd say later, ca. 1940s. Reeded stiles or engaged legs, mahogany, machine-cut dovetails, and what looks to be battleship-type construction. One thing's for sure: I'm not aware of anyone in Iowa making furniture before the U.S. Revolutionary war. Iowa didn't exist back then <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> The numbers are likely internal reference numbers for the company that made the piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
