Re: Lane Cedar Chest
The serial #, read backwards, will tell you the month, day and year it was manufactured. If it has 7 numbers, the last number indicates which plant it was made at. Example
2235150 = 2 / 23 / 51 / 50 shows it was made on May 15, 1932 at plant #2.
In your case, it was made August 6, 1942. If you can post a pic, someone may be able to help put a value on it.
