I bought these from a gentleman that was tearing down a building, he said he purchased them in the early 1970s and then gave them to his son who no longer wishes to store them. I heard the company went out of business in the 1950s and was hoping that someone could possibly give me an estimate of when they may have been made.  

I found the number 140 on the back of both pieces, not sure if that means anything!! I found no other numbers anywhere that I can see on either piece. The draws are all dove tail and I see no modification to any place on either piece. Everything seems to be original. I am also not sure what kind of wood. I really bought them becasue I thought they were beautiful and I could not pass on the price either!
