    I did some research and know that the company stopped manufacturing some time in the 1940's I am having trouble determining the exact age of the piece. The back is unfinished and has the label I included it also has a stamp that says mahogany finish. It has the original finish I believe judging from how much it has aged, but it has worn down to some redder looking spots over the years especially right along the front edge from arms resting on it. Any information anyone can give me would be great thank you.

      Please excuse the mess behind it lol, i had just emptied it out and some stroage boxes for a yard sale. I can't decide if I want to let the piece go or not. I have had it forever but I think I would prefer a more functional desk. that one doesn't have much leg room for someone tall.
