Chest, Dresser, Headboard, and Mirror from somewhere around 1930-1950. Solid, I believe Mahogany.

I believe it's Mahogany.
Distinguishing marks
Some ornate designs. Many of the original drawer pulls broke over the years. I bought replacements maybe 20 years ago. They were not great and broke so I put the ugly white knobs on just so we could open the drawers. The mirror is really cool.

History
My grandma bought this new after she was married in 1941. It was in her house as her main bedroom set until she passed away in 2003. I used it from then until 2017 then it's been stored in our attic since then. There is glass on top of the chest and dresser. When we took it out of her house, the original receipt was in the top drawer-it's since been lost, but I do remember the price was in the $500 range. I'd be interested in selling it to someone that would get good use out of it.
Bedroom Set
I'm interested if anyone can tell me more about this bedroom set. If I sell, what would be reasonable to ask for it? Thanks
