Re: Bluebird Cedar Chest
Sorry I don't have an answer for you. I also have a Blue Bird Cedar Chest that I am looking for more information on. I have not been able to find out much more than it was made by the Dillingham Manufacturing Co. in Sheboygan WI. I have not been able to find out how long that company was in business. Started sometime in the 1920's I think but don't know when it closed. I also know they made a lot of other products such as medicine cabinets and folding chairs but don't know when they started and when they quit making cedard chests. Good luck with your search. They really are beautiful.
