    Have a Martha Washington Sewing Cabinet made by Ferguson Brothers Manufacturing Company. Bottom has a plate with the number 3240. Trying to track down when this was manufactured. It was originally my grandmothers who was born in the late 1800's.

    Popular piece made for a lot of years. Company operated from late 19th century to 1953 so that doesn't pin you down much. Styling and dark finish on yours makes me think teens-30s.

    Grandmother probably got it when she got married so early 1900's would make sense.

    Thank you Debora, I looked through those. Too bad they don't have more of a collection.
