This set is typical of pieces made all over North America during the 1920s through early thirties when the Great Depression forced many companies into bankruptcy. Values last peaked for furniture of this type during the late '80s to early 1990s and since declined a great deal. Currently whole bedroom sets like this might go for $350 at auction.
