    This table is probably from after 1940 when the house was built, but I’m wondering if anyone is familiar with the stamps, etc. Thanks in advance!

    Looks earlier than 1940 to me but wait for others to give their opinions.

    The stamps look like internal reference numbers.

    The table does look earlier than 1940, but still a 20th century revival piece. The value will not be high.

    Why do you two think earlier than 1940s?
    I would have said 1940-60.

    How the table functions and some of the design details seem a bit earlier than 1940. But with one of the pictures blown up for better visibility, I can see that it could be 40s as well. I'll say mid 20th century. Regardless, the value will be minimal.

    Just realized you asked about the stamps.
    The numbers are the stock # Wal probably means Walnut.

    Are you selling it or just asking about it?

    Might refinish then sell it but may sell as is. I think we’re done with it. We’ve replaced it with a dresser, that I refinished, as a TV stand.

    Have you refinished furniture before?
    If not, then look at Howards Restor-A-Finish. They have a walnut,(you don't need the big can, the small one is more than enough), then use their Feed N Wax.

    Actually, I think it is a very functional table for people. It's small. What a lot of people are looking for.
    I have a retail store, so I would have a higher price than what you will probably be able to ask. Retail around $65 - $75.
