<p>[QUOTE="LittleLACollector, post: 4415913, member: 65408"]Interesting, I found on the RAL website that "Gutezeichen Ral" has been used since 1925 on furniture. I had a friend who does some appraising tell me it was made in 1929 based on (I'm guessing) the 3/29 on the paper label. But she did not know anything else, and that was long ago. I believe the info about the serviceman is accurate since my father in law purchased the table from his widow in the late 60's or early 70's, he was evidently a Colonel involved in the air raid in Bitburg at the end of 1944. This was not bought new by the serviceman, it was taken from a bombed out German bunker, so the story goes. I just wanted to know a little more about the piece itself. I have already gotten more info from your translation, and the Golden M explanation. Thank you! I am so happy I found this site! Do you think the Maker logo is the bird/K/star design?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
