[QUOTE="BoomDog, post: 4312369, member: 23862"]Hello, I’m new to this forum and am hoping for some help identifying the manufacturer of some items my wife inherited many years ago. These two pieces are only stamped on the back: “MATHEWS MAIER,xx” We can’t make out the letters after MAIER. Additionally, the number “223-1” is handwritten on the back of the buffet below the stamp and the number “632” is stamped above and to the left of it. There are a few other hand written numbers as well. My wife’s late grand parents were born in 1900 and lived mainly in Louisiana but on the east coast at some point as well. The two pieces we are trying to identify came to us along with and large dining room table with 6 chairs and two Berkey and Gay dressers. The table and chairs appear to match our two pieces we are trying to identify. Our dining room table has the handwritten number “223” underneath. We believe everything is from the the 1930’s based on information from family members but really aren’t too sure. We have tried researching the stamp but have come up empty handed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. PS: My apologies but for some reason I could not get the picture of the stamp to load right side up.
