<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 1965415, member: 738"]Yes, 40's. I grew up with a pair in my house in Minneapolis. Mahogany veneer, I think. The gilt edge decoration was applied with a rubber roller stamp. Ours had small brass casters. I'm sorry I don't know where they were made, but I've seen lots of others in shops. They are hard to find with the leather in good condition, as survivors of that martini and cigarette culture. Mother unfortunately fell asleep a lot while smoking and covered the thin leather inserts with cigarette burns. It's a wonder we all survived.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
