I am looking for places to find historical information on furniture companies. I have a old dresser that I have been refinishing, why someone would cover QS oak with several coats of paint is beyond me, but during my stripping, scrapping, and sanding, I found a company name stamped on the back of the dresser that I am interested in finding more information about. The name appears to be H.M. Gage Furniture, E. Third Street, Jamestown, NY.
If anyone knows of where to find historical furniture information, I would appreciate the information. A google search on the company, and the furniture industry in Jamestown has turned up no promising leads.
Thanks in advance.
