Possible antique Furniture piece, need help identifying it!

Description

So I am new to this sort of thing. This piece is what looks almost like a 2 door bureau. As it turns out it actually pulls out and becomes a 6 foot long table. I think it is pretty old but am not sure. the tag on the back says taylor-jamestown coorperation #840, Article-triplex and the finish is cherry. That is all I have on this and any help or interest in it would be much appreciated. In the attached photo it is not pulled out the entire way and the leafs are not in place although I do have them.
