Mid/late '50's,,duel shelf? Show a pic of the riser.

A lot more information has to be posted if you want an honest year it was built. Serial numbers back then don't mean to much. You will need amo length (pictured 60"amo), riser wood, logo type and location, glass color, overlay colors, how many selves one or two, and serial number prefix if there is one. 1950 to 1953 was a K- serial number prefix. 1954 to 1964 didn't have a regular serial number prefix.

I'm having problems getting the other pictures to load. Single shelf, maple riser, brown glass back and belly. Looks like white or cream color tip overlays.

I'd say 1957.

My son took the pictures at a flea market, I don't have a picture of the riser.

Silk screens, Brown glass, single shelf tells me 1957

From: Nemophilist
Date: 02-Apr-24




Like I posted before 1957 from the information you supplied.

From: Tony Phillips
Date: 02-Apr-24




Thank you for all the help!

just like 56' but silkscreens instead of decals I think

From: Nemophilist
Date: 02-Apr-24




A 1956 was silkscreened and had a double shelf.

Early 1955 had a decal, then later in 1955 was changed to silkscreen. 1955 was a double shelf.
