Rockford Furniture Company buffet

Description

This buffet was inherited from my grandmother.  The label on the inside and the "11" stamped on the back seem to be the only markings.  It is in good condition, with a few scratches.  I believe it is the original finish, doesn't seem like it has had anything done to alter the origial finish.  I have been trying to research Rockford Furniture Company, but so far not coming up with a whole lot of info.

Category American Furniture
Medium Wood, not sure what kind
Distinguishing marks Label on the inside reads " The 'B' Line Made in Rockford Illinois Rockford Furniture Company"
Condition Good
Size and dimensions of this item 35"t x 19"d x 39"w

Weight Unknown
History Was part of a set my grandmother bought in the 70's. There was a dining set and a larger buffet that she sold years ago, but she kept this piece. We are from St. Louis, so Rockford was fairly local for us.
