nesting tables

By nana 1956, 9 May, 2011
Description

 There is a red and gold (crown) label on the bottom of the small table that has Ferguson Treasured Furniture,Ferguson Bros. ,Hoboken,N.J., No. 2108. There is also written in pencil the number 27 on the bottom of the small table.The style is like Stickley. The legs are square,tapered. The tops are routed around the edges instead of sharp edges.They have green felt underneath each top so they wouldn't scratch when stacked.They are very plain,no drop leafs or no glass top,etc.. The construction is wooden pegs that hold the legs to wooden strips which are held in place to the tops by screws.They do need refinished as most of the finish is missing on the tops. Any help to find the age or value would be great. I do not want to sell.Thank you.

History
I purchased the tables at a moving sale in Norwalk,Ohio in 1975. I was told then that the tables were antique. I have not been able to find much about Ferguson Bros.,except that they went out of business around 1951 or 1953.

 There is a small table on the top of the nesting tables, I should have removed it before taking the photo.

Re: nesting tables

They are actually Federal Revival style examples, most like these postdate World War Two. In the condition they are in, you paid what about they go for at auction. They are very easy to refinish, most are lacquer, which strips off easily.
