Does anyone know the "ball-park" worth of Huntley Simmons bedroom set- 2 twin bedframes, dresser, and vanity with mirror, circa 1920.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  thanks!!

Huntley Furniture, if I'm not mistaken, was purchased by Simmons Co. in 1929.  They continued to ues the Huntley name until the early sixties, I believe, when it was sold to another company.

ok, here's some pictures. We have the missing pulls for the dresser, just need to get new screws to reattach them. All pieces have some wear  but vanity has sustained some damage. once again, thank you to everyone in advance for your help with this.

Correct me if I am wrong...but does the chest of drawers match the rest?  It doesn't appear so!

Must be from the flash!

Can you post a pic of a drawer pulled out, side view?
