Antique Questions Forum / Imperial Drum Table and vintage folding ship table

« on: February 25, 2008, 12:29:16 pm »

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and have some questions. My wife came home with two pieces yesterday and I am just wondering if anyone can hel I.D./ date them and give an aprroxamite value. The first is a round mohagany table with one drawer in front and a cream colored leather top. It has a three legged pedastal base with nice leaves carved into the base. It has a sticker inside the drawer that is shaped like a shield marked Imperiel Grand Rapids.It also has the number 816 stamped into the bottom of the drawer. The next piece is some kind of novelty table. The antique store had a sign that it was a card table. It is about three feet high and folds with a paper over wood picture of a ship at sea. There is a sticker on that also but not in good shape. I can only read the words Novelties and topper productions, it also has a stencil that reads  PAT. APLLIED FOR #11 GREETING AT SEA. Thats all the ifo I have on that piece. Any help would be greatly apprieciated. By the way she didn't pay much for either piece and both were aquired in New Jersey.
