History
I was told it was manufactured by Western Furniture Company in Batesville, IN. It was purchased 30+ years ago at an auction. I worry because it is very well marked with the manufacturer name, and with my research I can see that there are many companies named similar to Western Furniture Company. How can I tell if it is 1900 material in excellent condition, or newer fake company material?
